Emmy Award-winning writer, producer, and director Marc Guggenheim (Arrow, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, Trollhunters) has used the pandemic to focus on his passion for comics and now has a slate of star-studded new releases which kicked off on Dec. 14, 2022. These projects include the high concept graphic novel TOO DEAD TO DIE: A SIMON CROSS THRILLER (Image Comics), with art by Howard Chaykin (Blade, Wolverine); and has rolled into the new year with two more titles, FRAGMENTATION from Dark Horse, and the upcoming series TORRENT from Image Comics, featuring art by Justin Greenwood, in an all-new universe of superheroes.
In a press release, Guggenheim said about his upcoming projects:
“This is very exciting for me, I went into 2020 with the goal of getting back into creator-owned comics in a big way. The one silver lining of the pandemic was that I was able to devote more time to writing comics and it worked out better than I could have ever expected. Along with Last Flight Out (Dark Horse) with artist Eduardo Ferigato, these three projects represent the first ‘phase’ of my big creator-owned comics push. And the best part is that I’m working with some of my closest friends in the comic book business!”
