Leviathan Freedom arrives this Summer from Tom Morello, Marc Guggenheim, Szymon Kudrański, and DC Hopkins

Posted on by Leave a comment

The Grammy-winning guitarist, singer, songwriter, and activist Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine, Audioslave, and Prophets of Rage is returning to comics for Leviathan Freedom, an all-new sci-fi epic inspired by the true story of American icon Robert Smalls. Morello first made his comics debut with the acclaimed series Orchid in 2011. Morello is uniting with Emmy award-winning writer/producer Marc Guggenheim, artist Szymon Kudrański, and letterer DC Hopkins for a five-issue mini-series event from Amazon’s Comixology Originals exclusive digital content line. Leviathan Freedom will debut this summer.

Leviathan Freedom is a sci-fi reimagining of the legacy of Robert Smalls, a man born into slavery who seized his own freedom by commandeering a Confederate warship, sailing himself, his family, and others to liberation.

In Leviathan Freedom, the galaxy is divided by civil war. And the profound human cost of conflict is felt not in the war rooms but by the Doldrums, the laborer caste essential for the war machine–until one man decides to stand against it.

The futuristic adventure series Leviathan Freedom arrives this summer from Comixology Originals.The first issue features a cover by Sedat Oezgen with subsequent covers by Szymon Kudrański.

After a bruising brawl with mob boss Cormac Byrne’s hired guns, Father Royston Craig is still standing. But Cormac’s not through with Roy yet. Now an entire city of corrupt cops and ruthless thugs is tasked with one mission–KILL THE PRIEST. Forced to rely on the combat-hardened skills he earned in a life he thought he left behind, Roy is battered, outnumbered, and on the run. His faith will be tested, and in a city full of killers, the question is: who can he trust?

Ordained #2 gets a Second Printing Ahead of Release

Posted on by

Ordained cannot be stopped! After launching to universal critical acclaim demand for Ordained has reached a fever pitch! Ordained #1 has already bulldozed through THREE massive printings, with Ordained #1 Fourth Printing on the verge of yet another sell-out.

Now, Ordained #2 has sold out at the distributor level — a week before it smashes into stores on March 11th!

With a backlog of orders for more already piling up, Bad Idea is fast-tracking a Second Printing to try and keep up with the demand.

Ordained #2 Second Printing arrives in stores on April 15th, alongside Ordained #1 Fourth Printing, and the all-new, bone-crushing special — Ordained #0: The Machine!

Ordained is written by Robert Venditti, with art by Trevor Hairsine and Tonči Zonjić, color by Dave Stewart, and lettering by DC Hopkins.

Szymon Kudrański’s No Man’s Land being developed for film and gets collected this April

Posted on by

Szymon Kudrański‘s popular No Man’s Land miniseries published by Image Comics is currently in development for a film with producer Jason Berman‘s A/Vantage Pictures, as well as Kudrański and Jon Levin‘s Sustainable Imagination.

No Man’s Land is a high-stakes murder mystery perfect for fans of True Detective, Whiteout, and Insomnia. For three months each year, anyone can walk from the USA to Russia across an ice bridge: a frozen path known as the Ice Curtain. In 1963, when the body of a young woman is discovered on this icy no-man’s land, the already fragile relationship between the superpowers threatens to collapse. With nuclear tensions rising, an FBI agent and a KGB operative must solve the murder before the ice melts… and war ignites.

No Man’s Land is created, written, and illustrated by the much-celebrated Kudrański, edited by Tom Williams, lettered by DC Hopkins, and is under Kudrański’s One Man Art line, his fully independent creative banner where he creates and produces his own original works. No Man’s Land is the third solo series in a growing slate of Kudrański’s creator-owned titles that includes Something Epic and Blood Commandment.

No Man’s Land trade paperback (ISBN: 978-1534333604, Lunar Code 0226IM0506) collects issues #1-4 and will be available at local comic book shops on Wednesday, April 22 and independent bookstores, Bookshop, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books-a-Million, Indigo, and Waterstones on Tuesday, May 19.

Survive #5 delivers 80s action film awesomeness in its finale

Posted on by

Bruised, battered, and suffering from a serious case of the Bends, but far from out of the fight. Deep inside the Turgenev, they’ve uncovered a hidden stockpile of nuclear weapons, guarded by a ruthless band of heavily armed Russian mercenaries. With a U.S. Navy anti-ship cruise missile locked onto the vessel and seconds ticking down, Trent and Stepan must carve a path through the mercs, secure the ship, and trigger the strike that will obliterate the Turgenev before its deadly payload can reach its target.

Ordained #1 gets a Fourth Printing out in March

Posted on by

Ordained is back with a vengeance! After an electrifying debut, Ordained has routed its First, Second, and NOW Third Printings all before Ordained #2 hits the shelves in February.

Which is why Bad Idea is rolling the presses on a record Fourth Printing to try and match the intensifying demand.

Ordained #1 Fourth Printing arrives in comic shops on Wednesday, March 25th alongside the bone-breaking zero issue, Ordained #0: The Machine!

Ordained #1 is from writer Robert Venditti, art by Trevor Hairsine, color by Dave Stewart, and lettering by DC Hopkins.

With lightning-fast sell-outs, we expect allocations. So make sure to get your order in by Final Order Cutoff on Monday, February 23!

Ordained #1 Fourth Printing

Ordained #1 turns to shops this January with a Second Printing with Ordained #2 Shifting Release Date

Posted on by

Ordained #1 was Bad Idea‘s biggest selling issue of 2025, outside of the monstrous one-million-plus-copy-beast that is Planet Death.

But it wasn’t enough. Comic shops sold out of Ordained #1 on Day One, we’re sold out at the distributor level. Ordained #1 was severely under-ordered. 

Bad Idea has responded with the BIGGEST Second Printing in its history — over three times larger than any second printing they’ve ever done before.

And it still wasn’t enough.

Ordained #1 Second Printing has already sold out at the distributor level, so we’ve rushed a Third Printing. Ordained #1 Third Printing (LUNAR CODE: 0126BD0528) hits stores on February 11th, with orders due by January 12th.

Bad Idea wants everyone caught up before Father Roy throws the next punch. That’s why Ordained #2 is now moving to a February 11th release date, to give everyone the chance to track down and experience the explosive first issue before the next chapter hits the stands.

Ordained is written by Robert Venditti with art by Trevor Hairsine with the second issue featuring art also by Tonči Zonjić, lettering by DC Hopkins, and coloring by Dave Stewart.

Ordained #2 gets expanded to 48 pages!

Posted on by

THE HEAT IS ON! Ordained #1 is out NOW. And it’s already a runaway success with nationwide store sell-outs, a second and third printing, and comic fans beating down our door for more high-octane action. Bad Idea has announced it’s expanding Ordained #2 into an action-packed 48-page powerhouse!

Ordained is written by Robert Venditti with art by Trevor Hairsine and Tonči Zonjić, color by Dave Stewart, and lettering by DC Hopkins, with a main cover Jorge Fornés.

After a bruising brawl with mob boss Cormac Byrne’s hired guns, Father Royston Craig is still standing. But Cormac’s not through with Roy yet. Now an entire city of corrupt cops and ruthless thugs is tasked with one mission–KILL THE PRIEST. Forced to rely on the combat-hardened skills he earned in a life he thought he left behind, Roy is battered, outnumbered, and on the run. His faith will be tested, and in a city full of killers, the question is: who can he trust?

Check out a preview of Ordained #2 and don’t miss it when it comes to shops January 21.
