Revenger Comics and IDW Publishing take sci-fi horror to a new level
“One of the most original and bizarre stories I’ve ever read.” - Mark Ordesky, Executive Producer, The Lord of the Rings film trilogy
San Diego, CA (October
25, 2011)—Available today and just in time for Halloween, IDW
Publishing and Revenger Comics announced the launch of
BILLY MAJESTIC’S HUMPTY DUMPTY, a
horrifyingly new take on an old familiar character. This original
story was created and written by Billy Majestic
and developed by Revenger Comics (revenger.com). In addition to the
frightful new graphic novel, Humpty Dumpty is also
currently in pre-production as a major motion picture.
“Billy Majestic’s Humpty Dumpty has been a labor of
love for all of us at Revenger. We could not be more excited to
join IDW in bringing Humpty to the fans around the world who have
hung in there with us for the two years it took to complete the
graphic novel. We look forward to getting him to the big screen and
keeping the weirdness going!” said Mad Jones
of Revenger Comics.
In BILLY MAJESTIC’S HUMPTY DUMPTY, two
backwoods brothers, Petus and Pervis Brakk, ambush a group of
extraterrestrial beings who have crash-landed on their swampland
property. The brothers capture the alien female and secretly keep
her prisoner. After month of captivity, the now-pregnant alien
escapes into the swampland, where she gives birth to a monstrous
half-human, half-alien creature, who exacts revenge on the sadistic
Brakk brothers. Joining Majestic on this
terrifying tale are artists Jordan Jordanov and
Ven Dinkov.
