Comic book imprint brings upcoming film to comics, Legacy’s Patrick Hickey Jr. to script and letter; Steve Cange to pencil, ink and color.
01/03/24: Legacy Comix is proud to announce that they will create a comic book for the Canadian film production company Experience North Media this Winter. The project, entitled, The Oddsmakers, written by Timothy Hazin, is set for a Spring 2024 release.
A gritty and mystery-filled tale of espionage, Legacy Owner Patrick Hickey Jr. is excited for the collaboration.
“This isn’t our first rodeo with film-inspired IP, but we’re pretty sure this is the best,” Hickey said. “Timothy’s script isn’t forced. It lends itself beautifully to our medium. We’re excited to work on it with him and the ENM gang.”
Introduced to Legacy after reading Renfield: Visions of Madness, Hazin, too, is excited to see his film come alive in panels.
“Working with Legacy is where professionalism and pure fun intersect,” Hazin said. “Patrick has been an amazing sherpa on this journey, guiding me through creating a graphic story that is a true reflection of the short film we are making. Steve’s art and the characters that he brought to life are so spot on with how I envisioned this, it’s like he pick pocketed my imagination and put it straight onto ‘paper.’ Legacy is the best mix of old-school effort and new school vibes; it’s been an amazingly collaborative and educational experience. Can’t wait to get started on the next project with this team.”
About The Oddsmakers:
Odie is given one day to choose between risking everything he has spent a lifetime building to help a friend, or to save himself by sacrificing his friend to a militaristic government.
