31 Upcoming Comic Book TV Shows You Have To See

25. The Disciples

Status: This series is in development by Wes Craven. Pitch: One percenters now rule the solar system, colonizing its many moons. Billionaire industrialist McCauley Richmond has built a new society on Ganymede, a moon of Jupiter, where his flock of cultists are free to worship him. Bounty hunters Dagmar, Rick and Jules are there to retrieve a senator's daughter who has joined the cult. But something has gone wrong. Odds of Success Onscreen: Hard to say without more information. The TV deal was announced before the first issue even came out, which is a point against it, but it's got a stronger concept and a good director who seems well matched to it, if that scene of corpses floating in orbit around Jupiter above is any indication.
