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

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.
