BOOM! STUDIOS ANNOUNCES NEW PROJECT


FROM STEPHEN BALDWIN AND ANDREW COSBY


THE REMNANT


EXCLUSIVE SDCC'08 PREVIEW BOOK ON SALE AT THE BOOM! STUDIOS BOOTH (#2543)


STEPHEN BALDWIN TO SIGN FRIDAY AND SATURDAY ONLY!


July 16th, 2008 - Los Angeles, CA - BOOM! Studios is proud to announce THE REMNANT, a new project created by Stephen Baldwin with a story by Baldwin and EUREKA TV series creator Andrew Cosby. To celebrate this new series, BOOM! Studios will have available at its booth a special-edition preview book priced at five dollars during the upcoming Comicon San Diego later this month. Baldwin will also be signing at the BOOM! booth Friday the 25th and Saturday the 26th.


A supernatural thriller in the vein of 24, THE REMNANT will explore the fundamental questions of human life and our perception of reality.


"I wanted to do a comic that asked the big questions but answered them in little ways," said Baldwin. "Philosophy and spirituality are complex beasts, but I believe literature's purpose is to contextualize these tricky subjects into entertaining stories that speak, not preach, to the reader."


Caleb Monroe, the critically acclaimed writer from NEGATIVE BURN and PARABLE, will script THE REMNANT under the direction of Baldwin and Cosby with art by soon to be fan-favorite Julian Totino Tedesco.


The 16-page preview book includes a sneak peek of the first few pages of THE REMNANT, including exclusive preliminary sketches by series artist Julian Totino Tedesco and series cover artist Paul Azaceta.


THE REMNANT preview book will be a great launching point for this groundbreaking series for collectors and curious fans alike.
