Massive Publishing announced Wesley Snipes has teamed with the comic publisher for the upcoming sci-fi noir graphic novel, The Exiled.
“Comics let you explore big worlds. Since Blade, I have been attracted to origin stories and developing characters,” said Snipes. “Now, I get to build “Roach” as a character from the ground up and I dig that,” said Wesley Snipes in a press release.
The Exiled follows hardboiled detective Niles “Roach” Washington as he pursues a mysterious serial killer he believes to be a part of an ancient conspiracy. When powerful forces outside and within the police department attempt to discredit him for his theories, Roach’s instincts keep pushing him forward. With enemies on all sides, Roach must dig deeper and uncover secrets hidden for thousands of years.
The Exiled is written by Adam Lawson and Keith Arem, with art by Eskivo.
This is the first time The Exiled has been collected for mass-market bookstores and comic book shops.
