SDCC 2024: John Wick’s Derek Kolstad joins Robert Venditti, Tomás Giorello, and Bad Idea for Planet Death

Posted on by

Bad Idea has announced that blockbuster screenwriter Derek Kolstad, creator and writer of the internationally acclaimed, box office dominating motion picture franchise John Wick, as well as the multi-award winning action-thriller Nobody and its upcoming sequel for Universal Studios, will join New York Times best-selling writer Robert Venditti and visionary artist Tomás Giorello for Planet Death – an all-new Prestige Format limited series beginning in March.

Millions of miles from home, hundreds of ships descend into the stormy atmosphere of a hostile frozen world. On board, an army of resolute men and women brace for the coming assault.

They are an invasion force, on an impossible mission — destroy the devastating enemy weapon garrisoned below. Corporal Scott and his battalion are in the vanguard but the human forces are no match for their brutal alien adversaries. Scott’s battalion is dead within moments. He is its lone survivor. The landing force annihilated, the battle is lost.

Against overwhelming odds, Scott dares the unthinkable — cross behind enemy lines, survive the lethal landscape, evade capture by ruthless enemies, resist natural predators, face human deserters and finish the mission singlehandedly. Locked in his suit of full combat battle armor, sustained only by what he can carry, and driven by Earth’s wrath, Scott must do by himself what an entire army could not.

Destroy the weapon.

Return home.

Fans at this month’s San Diego Comic-Con will get a first look on Saturday, July 27th at 2:30pm with a Planet Death convention exclusive that will be given to attendees of the Bad Idea panel in room 24ABC at the world-famous show.

Crowdfunding Corner: Get Save Now from Matt Kindt and Tomás Giorello

Backer Beware: Crowdfunding projects are not guaranteed to be delivered and/or delivered when promised. We always recommend to do your research before backing.

Matt Kindt and Tomás Giorello reunite for the most ambitious comic event of our time in a graphic novel about a man desperate to change the past and save our world from total destruction! Being published by Bad Idea, Save Now is now live on Kickstarter! Back it today and don’t miss out on the stunning array of limited edition and campaign exclusive items. 

Save Now features author Matt Kindt and Tomás Giorello, Diego Rodriguez, and Lewis LaRosa in a mind-bending, timeline twisting, epic adventure for the ages available only on Kickstarter!

Armed with the extraordinary ability to “save” any moment in his life and then go back and relive from that point forward again, Saver can willingly alter his actions and rewrite his history time and time again. However, his incredible power comes at a great cost. He is cursed with only being able to jump backward, never forward, and is burdened with reliving his life in agonizing real-time, aging all the while. Jump back six days and he must live every minute of those days out again, arriving back where he started but now six days older.

Saver has seen our future, and our impending apocalypse. Yet, no matter how many times he goes back and no matter how far back he goes, he can’t steer us clear of armageddon. What would you do if you knew the world was going to end but couldn’t stop it? What if you could choose to live your life out repeating the best year of your life? Which year would it be? This is the question at the heart of this year’s most must-read comic event. SAVE NOW is a triumph of storytelling. A sci-fi story like none that has ever come before. Action-packed, mind-bending, heart-wrenching and life-affirming.

Bad Idea reveals foreign translations and partners with Moztros Ediciones, Bliss Éditions, and Lithuanian Legends Ink

Posted on by

Bad Idea has announced the first foreign translations of their library of comics. Bad Idea comics will now available in French, Spanish and even Lithuanian! International partners include Moztros Ediciones in Spain, Bliss Éditions in France, and Lithuanian Legends Ink in Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and Belarus.

Moztros Ediciones will kick off their Bad Idea slate of releases in Spanish language markets with the bone-crunching Tankers by New York Times bestselling writer Robert Venditti and blockbuster artist Juan José Ryp. Like a Saturday morning cartoon that’s run irresponsibly over-budget, TANKERS is here to take all of our insecurities about mankind’s most self-destructive impulses and turn them up until the knob snaps off.

Bliss Éditions explodes into French language markets with a Bad Idea slate that launches with an epic of incredible scope and power — Odinn’s Eye. Haunted by visions from the god-king Odinn himself, 12 year old Solveig is tasked with a brutal mission – assemble a war party, journey across the nine worlds and retrieve the eye Odinn famously traded for wisdom, or watch the world wither and die. From the visionary minds of Eisner Award nominated writer Joshua Dysart and powerhouse artist Tomás Giorello.

And Lithuanian Legends Ink lets loose on their Bad Idea odyssey with an unprecedented day-and-date, simultaneous launch of The Destroyer. The explosive and heartbreaking story of rebirth in the midst of death from superstar film and TV writer Mae Catt and Eisner Award winning artist Alberto Ponticelli will be available for sale in Lithuanian across the entire Baltic region on December 20th, the same day as its global release in English.

Odinn’s Eye #5

Written by JOSHUA DYSART
Art by TOMAS GIORELLO
Colors by DIEGO RODRIGUEZ
PLUS: An All-New BAD IDEA B-SIDE
FIVE ISSUES | WEEKLY!
$7.99 EACH ($9.99 ISSUE ONE) | 32 PGS. (72 PG ISSUE ONE) | NO ADS

Solveig, a young farm girl of great promise, is haunted by visions from the god-king Odinn himself. In words she cannot understand, and images too violent for a child to comprehend, Odinn tasks Solveig with a brutal mission: retrieve his eye — the one he famously traded for wisdom — and bring it to him.

In the real world, the winter season has not left the land of Solveig’s people for several years. As crops fail and livestock perish, fear and panic grow. In their desperation to appease the gods and free the land of this never-ending winter, the tribe turns to the child whose visions are surely a sign from Odinn. A war party is assembled. Solveig and a band of warriors — including an all-seeing witch — are sent north on a great quest — one which will change all that she knows, all who she has known, and all that she will become.

An epic of incredible scope and vision from the minds of Joshua Dysart and Tomas Giorello. Told weekly in 5 parts this December.
