NBC is developing a drama based on the comic Bad Medicine by Nunzio DeFilippis, Christina Weir, and artist Christopher Mitten. The project is being developed by Mark Kruger, David Janollari, T.G.I.M. Films, and Universal TV.

Pulled out of exile from a dark corner of the world, renowned-surgeon-turned-fringemedicine- eccentric Doctor Randal Horne must return to New York City to investigate a tragic research lab accident that’s left one man dead, and inexplicably headless. Now with the help of a distrusting NYPD detective and a team of doctors from the CDC, Horne must diagnose this and other seemingly unexplainable medical phenomenon in a world where the line between medical science and science fiction is blurry at best.

The comic series was released by Oni Press in 2012 and was a release by the publisher for that year’s Free Comic Book Day.
