Ghost Machine and Atlas Entertainment team for a Redcoat Feature Adaptation

Atlas Entertainment and Ghost Machine are developing a feature film adaptation of Redcoat, the series written by Geoff Johns, illustrated by Bryan Hitch, colored by Brad Anderson, and lettered by Rob Leigh.

The feature film adaptation will be written by Johns based on a story by Johns and Hitch and is being produced by Charles Roven and Alex Gartner for Atlas Entertainment.

Redcoat launched in April 2024 to an instant sellout, and the ongoing series has since established itself as a mainstay on the top seller charts for Image Comics/Ghost Machine.

The story follows a British deserter after he mistakenly gains immortality during the American Revolution and is forced to face his cowardly past and fight against a sinister plot to destroy America. Reminiscent of the bombastic historical action in Pirates of the Caribbean and Indiana Jones, Redcoat pulls back the curtain of American History to tell the legend of the unknown hero who saved us all.

No Dead-End in Sight for Hyde Street with a Double Sellout and New Printing

Hyde Street #3 and Hyde Street #4 by Blackest Night and Aquaman team, Geoff Johns and Ivan Reis along with inker Danny Miki, colorist Brad Anderson, and letterer Rob Leigh, have sold out completely at the distributor level. Both issues of this popular Ghost Machine horror series are being rushed back to print this week by Image Comics in order to keep up with escalating demand.

In Hyde Street #3, picture, if you will, a holiday season filled not with joy or cheer, but with shadows and secrets. Enter a man known only as Mr. X-Ray. His journey is a desperate one, seeking escape from the inescapable. Standing in his way, an innocent malevolence: Pranky, a boy scout who lives not to serve his fellow man, but to serve the dark power that presides over Hyde Street. Yet, during this strange Christmas tale, these two unlikely figures may find common ground…or not.

In Hyde Street #4, witness the demise of a good man in a town without pity. A caring man, with aspirations to be known among his peers as one of Hollywood’s finest actors, only to see these colleagues snicker at him when he’s typecast as a famous film monster made of human patchwork parts. But, as we’ll see, life imitates art in Tinseltown, down a boulevard called…Hyde Street.

Hyde Street #3, second printing (Lunar Code 0225IM847) and Hyde Street #4, second printing (Lunar Code 0225IM848) will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, April 16.
