Twentieth Century Fox and BOOM! Studios Joining Sons of Anarchy
Motorcycle gangs have their own certain appeal. Whether it's their "bad guy" approach to things or if it's their general approach to life in general, they have a way of getting things done. Sometimes, getting things done include participating in a comic book series and that happens courtesy of Twentieth Century Fox and BOOM! Studios joining up for a Sons of Anarchy comic book, written by Christopher Golden and illustrated by Damian Couceiro (cover art by Garry Brown).
“Our team at BOOM! Studios includes some of the biggest fans of ‘Sons of Anarchy’ and with our long-time desire to create a comic series around the show now a reality, we couldn’t be more excited,” said Ross Richie, CEO of BOOM! Studios. “We are focused on adding to the mythology of the show in a way that is authentic and meaningful, while working closely alongside Kurt, FX and Fox so that the fans get the best experience from a ‘Sons of Anarchy’ comic.”
With season 6 in production, the series has been nothing but success for FX. The show is an adrenalized drama with darkly comedic undertones that explores an outlaw motorcycle club's (MC) desire to protect its livelihood while ensuring that their simple, sheltered town of Charming, California, remains exactly that--charming. The MC must confront threats from drug dealers, corporate developers, and overzealous law officers. Behind the MC's familial lifestyle and legally thriving automotive shop is a ruthless and illegally thriving arms business.
The book is slated to hit stores September 11. Full press release below.
