Whedon Announces New Creator-owned Series from Dark Horse With a Twist: SDCC
During his Dark Horse Comics spotlight panel at SDCC yesterday
, Joss Whedon (Avengers: Age of Ultron, Buffy The Vampire Slayer) announced his latest creator-owned comic series, Twist.
Whedon described the six-issue series as the answer to “the most personal question that can be put to us, which is, why isn’t there a Victorian, female Batman?”
In the announcement released via Entertainment Weekly, the writer gets more specific about his steampunk-fueled superhero yarn. “It’s a Victorian thriller about a meek chambermaid who is fed to a dark horror — but instead of dying, she returns, with knowledge, power, and rage she can neither deny nor control.”
Whedon has worked with Dark Horse extensively on the Buffy and Angel comics since both TV shows ended and he published Fray, the Buffy The Vampire Slayer spin-off, through them back in 2003.
