16. Pax Romana

Status: This is in development for SyFy as a miniseries. Pitch: In an increasingly secular future, the Catholic Church discovers time travel and goes back in time to the fourth century to solidify its power base. But the commanding cardinal is shot, and building the perfect Christian society isn't as easy as his successors thought... Odds of Success Onscreen: Above average. The concept is solid and the idea of a clash between two offbeat timelines has been used to great effect in other stories. Jonathan Hickman, one of Marvel's stars, wrote and drew the original.
