The Remnant Debuts at San Diego

Posted by bob in Comics, News on July 17th, 2008

Described as a “supernatural thriller in the vein of 24,” BOOM Studios has announced the arrival of The Remnant. The new series “will explore the fundamental questions of human life and our perception of reality.”

The project was created by actor Stephen Baldwin with a story by Baldwin and Eureka creator Andrew Cosby.  BOOM! Studios will have a special-edition preview book priced at five dollars during Comic Con International.  Baldwin will also be signing at the BOOM! booth Friday the 25th and Saturday the 26th.

“I wanted to do a comic that asked the big questions but answered them in little ways,” said Baldwin in a release.  “Philosophy and spirituality are complex beasts, but I believe literature’s purpose is to contextualize these tricky subjects into entertaining stories that speak, not preach, to the reader.”

Critically acclaimed writer Caleb Monroe (Negative Burn) will script The Remnant with art by newcomer Julian Totino Tedesco. Covers will be from artist Paul Azaceta.
