The Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman has announced that the AMC companion series will be called Fear The Walking Dead.
The new series will debut this summer with six episodes. Fear The Walking Dead takes place in Los Angeles and stars Kim Dickens, Cliff Curtis, Frank Dillane and Alycia Debnam.
The characters are all new, not from either the show or comic books.
DEAD STILLS: AMC has released images from "Conquer," the Season 5 finale premiering Sunday.
Here's how the episode is described:
"Daryl experiences trouble on a run. Meanwhile, Rick and his group continue to feel like outsiders in Alexandria, where trouble is creeping into the gates."
BRIEFLY
LOOKING FOR SKULL: Marvel Comics has announced a July launch for Red Skull, a three-issue Secret Wars series by writer Josh Williamson and artist Luca Pizzari, with #1 cover shown here by Riley Rossmo.
Here's how the book is described:
"The Red Skull should be dead. Banished beyond the Shield long ago, if the zombies haven't gotten to him, the Ultron robots or Annihilation bugs should have! Any yet word has reached the other side that he still lives, quietly amassing his forces, prepared to strike!
"Now, a team of unlikely villains -- Magneto, Winter Soldier, Lady Deathstrike, Electro, Moonstone and Jack O'Lantern will venture beyond safety to find the truth for themselves. Only problem -- beyond the Shield, nobody ever comes back alive!"
VERY BRIEFLY: Dark Horse Comics has scheduled an October release for The Big Guy and Rusty the Boy Robot, a hardcover collection, with remastered color by Dave Stewart. The bokk will include the Dark Horse Presents special and "surprise extras."
