Independent comic book publishers rarely get the stunning Hollywood deals right off the bat, let alone before they officially release their first comic book. So it is with great pride that Stranger Comics announces that their first title,The Untamed, has been acquired by visionary producer Lloyd Levin (Watchmen, Hellboy, Tomb Raider). This marks the first time in history a comic company has sold its maiden property as a feature film before the official launch of the comic book title.

Written by Sebastian A. Jones with art by Peter Bergting (Dungeons & Dragons, Frazetta’s Creatures) and Darrell May, The Untamed is a dark fantasy tale following the story of a man who makes a deal with the devil to be released from hell for seven days to reap vengeance on the seven souls who murdered him and his family. But his quest for retribution turns to one of redemption when he’s given a second chance to make the right decision, even though it may cost him his immortal soul.

   The film appealed to Levin on many levels and he’s eager to start preproduction. “The tale is Untamed and so is the filmmaking,” said Levin who is assembling an elite team of renaissance entertainment pioneers. Levin will produce and Andrew Cosby will direct.
