Tom Hardy is diving into comics and teaming up with Scott Snyder, Frank Tieri, and Ryan Smallman for Arcbound. Hardy will be responsible for character development and continues an increase in actors moving into comic creation.
The comic series will be 12 issues and takes place on an Earth that’s a barren wasteland.
The formidable corporatocracy, Zynitec, harnesses the unmatched energy of Kronium to assert its dominion across the stars. The Arcbound series chronicles the journey of Kai, a resolute Mediator Captain, tasked with maintaining Zynitec’s lifeline to Kronium. However, as he grapples with the morality of his role, revelations about Zynitec’s dubious past thrust him into a poignant quandary: to remain loyal to the empire or to confront the forces that molded him into a tool of oppression.
The debut issue is coming in March and will feature covers by Ryan Ottley, Clay Mann, Tyler Kirkham, and Dan Panosian.
A publisher for distribution has not been announced.
