The original version of, "The Twilight Zone," is amazing. I'll rewatch old episodes of the series that had Rod Serling as the showrunner (and oftentimes writer/executive producer/etc.) and be amazed how good a job the episodes did of telling stories that still ring true today in regards to our xenophobia, perceptions of beauty, and more (some episodes were simply intense and clever too). There have been multiple revivals of the series and a feature film (another is allegedly on the way too), but that original series is still the best. Now, a cool comic-book take (the latest of a handful that have occurred) is on the way.
This latest, "The Twilight Zone," comic will be an anthology--just like the television series--where each issue stands alone. The artwork will intentionally be in black-and-white as the OG version was too. Set to be published by IDW, some great names are attached to the initial five issues, including such talents as Tom Scioli, James Stokoe, Francesco Francavilla, and more! I know I'm excited, and I look forward to the first issue this September!
