MeTV has announced the development with Frank Miller Presents on full-length comic books starring Svengoolie, with two comics set to release in 2023. Fans attending the Svengoolie panel at New York Comic Con this afternoon were the first to hear the news.
Svengoolie previously starred in 2019’s Svengoolie Meets the DC Universe written by Dan DiDio, which featured Svengoolie starring alongside DC Comics super-heroes Superman, Wonder Woman, as well as Gotham nemesis The Joker.
In other news, Svengoolie continues the hunt for the ‘Spawn of Svengoolie,’ inviting fans nationwide to download the new Svengoolie mobile app and audition for the chance to enter his dungeon to join his universe. Fans are also auditioning in the MeTV booth at New York Comic Con this weekend.
Also, this October MeTV continues its programming event, ‘Svengoolie’s Halloween BOOnanza,’ a month-long celebration of all things Svengoolie, promising spooky, kooky and fiendishly fun movies, programs and specials for the entire family. Featured programming includes a Svengoolie movie showcase every Saturday night followed by an all-new season of the Svengoolie companion series Sventoonie, Sunday afternoon mini-marathons of spooky episodes of classic TV series, plus a horror-themed all-new episode of original series Collector’s Call on October 9.
Svengoolie has been a beloved TV staple since the 1970’s, putting a humorous spin on classic science fiction and horror films from Hollywood history. Since 1979, Rich Koz, a.k.a. Svengoolie has entertained legions of sci-fi and horror fans with comedy sketches, jokes and song parodies; the show has become a highlight of the programming on the MeTV network.
