IDW Entertainment, the new tv production arm of IDW Publishing, has announced that they are teaming up with Entertainment One on their first series, V-Wars.
V-Wars is based on the acclaimed IDW Publishing property written by New York Times best-selling and multiple Bram Stoker Award®-winning author Jonathan Maberry. It debuted as a collection of prose stories that chronicles the first Vampire War, and a second volume is scheduled for release this July. IDW Publishing also launched an ongoing monthly V-Wars comic book series in May. The first issue was critically acclaimed and is already headed to a second printing.
V-Wars is set in a world transformed by a catastrophic environmental event that releases a millennial-old virus that once triggered, affects individuals differently depending on their DNA. The result is vampires as unique as their cultures and a response from those unaffected humans like never seen before.
Adding to that synopsis, writer Jonathan Maberry has said “V-Wars is a head-on collision of real-world science, terrorism, special forces action, ethics, politics and an exploration of what defines us as human.”
IDW offered V-Wars earlier this month on FREE COMIC BOOK DAYand also made a preview available on-line. Check It out below.
