PRESS RELEASE
Vault Comics and GraphicAudio® A Movie In Your Mind® are thrilled to announce they have partnered to produce the WASTED SPACE audiobook, adapted directly from the graphic novel and produced with a full cast of actors, immersive sound effects and cinematic music.
WASTED SPACE follows Billy Bane, a prophet who got it all wrong, and the galaxy has been burning ever since. All he wants is to waste away in the darkest corner of space with his best pal Dust, a supercharged Fuq bot. But when a new prophet comes calling, Billy is summoned to save the galaxy he’s at least partially responsible for destroying. Too bad he couldn’t care less.
“WASTED SPACE is a bouncy, twisting ride of a story, blasting through space opera tropes and conventions with a splash of social satire,” said the WASTED SPACE audiobook director, Richard Rohan. “Having the opportunity to render that story in GraphicAudio was almost as much fun as the story itself!”
“It’s been a joy working with GraphicAudio on the WASTED SPACE adaptation–they’ve been so faithful to the material while adding in new and fun story angles,” said WASTED SPACE writer and co-creator, Michael Moreci. “I’ve loved what I’ve heard, and I’m so confident other people will, too. This cinematic space opera brought to life in the best way.”
“GraphicAudio has brought WASTED SPACE to life in a whole new way here that’s just crazy cool,” added WASTED SPACE artist and co-creator Hayden Sherman. “It’s faithful and fun and has me dying to find out what each issue sounds like.”
