Another comic series might be coming to television as FX is developing That Texas Blood. The drama series from Jim Mickle and E.L. Katz is based on the comic series from Chris Condon and Jacob Phillips and published by Image Comics.

Mickle and Katz are writing and exec producing the series and Mickle will also direct it.

Other executive producers include Michael Waldron and Adam Fasullo via Anomaly Pictures, Adam Fishbach, Jeremy Platt, Linda Moran, and Condon. Jacob Phillips is serving as co-executive producer.

That Texas Blood is a neo-noir Western following Sheriff Joe Bob Coates of Ambrose County, Texas, who questions his place in an increasingly violent world when a man returns home following the sudden disappearance of his brother, causing a spiral down into a past filled with treachery and blood.

The comic series debuted in 2020 and it’s 21st issue will be released in September.

God Country

AfterShock Media has announced that Jim Mickle will direct the film adaptation of Donny Cates‘ comic series God Country. Cates adapted the screenplay for the film. Lee Kramer and Jon Kramer from AfterShock Media will produce along with Jim Mickle and Linda Moran.

God Country was originally published in 2017 by Image Comics to critical acclaim. The first issue immediately sold out and had to be reprinted four times before being collected in trade paperback.

In God Country, Emmett Quinlan is an elderly widower rattled by dementia. Emmett isn’t just a problem for his children–his violent outbursts are more than the local cops can handle. When a tornado levels his home–as well as the surrounding West Texas town–a restored Quinlan rises from the wreckage. An enchanted sword at the eye of the storm gives him not just a sound mind and body, but phenomenal power. He’s now the only man who can face the otherworldly creatures the sword has drawn down to the Lone Star State in a film that will bring a Western aesthetic to the superhero genre.
