‘Eureka’ Goes BOOM! in December
In a somewhat unique manner, BOOM! Studios cofounder Andrew Cosby took to YouTube to announce that the Sci Fi series Eureka will become their latest title. The comic adventures will be co-written by Crosby, who created the series, and Brendan Hay (The Daily Show) with art by Diego Barreto, son of DC mainstay Eduardo Barreto.
"I see this as Season 1.5," Cosby says on the video. The story will fill in gaps between the first and second season and be considered part of the show’s mythology.
The first issue will be out in December with a covers by J.K. Woodward (Fallen Angel).
Eureka debuted on the Sci Fi Channel in 2006 and was a ratings and critical hit. The first two seasons are currently available on DVDThe third season will comprise 21 episodes and began airing July 29. In August, a soundtrack album was released.
Well, there's a video that has done it's job. I've never watched Eureka before. I can't say that I was a fan before. But that video made me LIKE Andrew Crosby, Eureka and Boom Comics. I'm a fan now and I've never seen the show! I'm just a puppet to advertising, I guess.
What a cool video. It was great seeing Ed Quinn (Nathan Stark) and know that he is still involved with the Eureka team. I am not a big comic book buyer but will be buying this one. It will be nice to get more of the backstory of Eureka through Season 1.5. Awesome!
