TITAN PUBLISHING TO PUBLISH COMPANION BOOKS AND COMIC BOOKS

TO COWBOY BEBOP

London, August 2021

Titan Publishing is delighted to announce a new collaboration with Netflix to publish the official fiction, non-fiction & comics for the eagerly anticipated upcoming series, Cowboy Bebop, set to premier on Netflix on November 19 2021. A prequel novel to be published in November 2021 will be followed by a beautiful coffee table art book detailing the making of the series in Spring 2022.  These will also be accompanied by an original comic book series featuring the characters from the show, which will debut in December 2021. 

Based on the worldwide phenomenon from Sunrise Inc., COWBOY BEBOP is an action-packed space Western about three bounty hunters, aka “cowboys,” all trying to outrun the past. As different as they are deadly, Spike Spiegel (John Cho), Jet Black (Mustafa Shakir), and Faye Valentine (Daniella Pineda) form a scrappy, snarky crew ready to hunt down the solar system’s most dangerous criminals — for the right price. But they can only kick and quip their way out of so many scuffles before their pasts finally catch up with them.

With an exclusive adventure leading into the events of the series, COWBOY BEBOP: A SYNDICATE STORY: RED PLANET REQUIEM is written by Sean Cummings, a staff writer on the series. Explore the rich history of Cowboy Bebop through the eyes of a young Spike Spiegel and Vicious. 

COWBOY BEBOP: MAKING THE NETFLIX SERIES captures the epic journey behind the scenes of Netflix’s live-action Cowboy Bebop adaptation! Featuring an exclusive foreword by showrunner André Nemec, this official companion is packed full of beautiful concept art and revealing behind-the-scenes photography, as the cast and crew tell the story of how one of the most influential anime series of all time was translated over to live action in this much-anticipated series produced by Netflix and Tomorrow Studios (Snowpiercer).

COWBOY BEBOP: THE COMIC SERIES will introduce fans of the series to a never-before-seen comic story. Set in the year 2171, the bounty hunter crew of the spaceship Bebop chase an ex-gang member who holds a vest which gives the wearer unlimited luck. This new series will be penned by DC comics veteran Dan Watters (Lucifer, Home Sick Pilots) with art by Lamar Mathurin and will debut with a range of fantastic covers including cover art by comics legend Stanley ‘Artgerm’ Lau. #1 of this four-issue story will arrive in stores December 2021 with a collected trade paperback coming May 2022.

‘Cable Reloaded #1’ Review

https://blacknerdproblems.com/cable-reloaded-1-review/

Writer: Al Ewing / Artist: Robert Quinn / Marvel

That Old Man backkkk!! Young Cable has sacrificed his boyish good looks to save mutant babies and kick Stryfe’s ass, so now his older time traveling self is back in control and orchestrating legendary missions. Cable: Reloaded #1 is a bit of a slow read to start off, as you have to digest a bit of information if you haven’t been keeping up with Guardian of the Galaxy. Luckily there are some exciting things happening as you get caught up on Cable’s briefing.

Al Ewing is one of the best Marvel writers out here, so this was a guaranteed read for me; however, it’s great when you watch it all unfold so beautifully. I’ve digested a few Robert Quinn books (Way of X being the most recent) but I’m not quite sure what to make of the artist just yet. I dont know if it’s my inner X-Men: The Animated Series stan surfacing or what but Cable: Reloaded #1 gives me some good 90s vibes with most of that praise going to Quinn. In particular, Cable’s look could be ripped from a John Byrne comic, and I wouldn’t be able to tell the difference.

Cable Reloaded #1

This book is a classic case of throwing you in the middle of a mission, then pulling back the curtain to reveal the evil reasons why our heroes are leaping into action. I love Ewing’s narration throughout the book. He provides such a unique perspective with Cable’s old man memories being used and relied upon in 2021 (Epsilon something if you nasty). He knows the future lies. He knows the future is never set. That’s why he does what he does; to fight for a better future. That’s why he gets the X-Terminators back to steal some supremely heavy artillery in the fight to take out the Dread Dormammu who has his sights set on taking 5 magical planets.

There are some absolute gems scattered throughout this issue. Cable’s insight into his mission mates was incredible. Reading the details on future Rocket Raccoon was so enjoyable because you’re fully aware of how seriously geeked Cable, despite the cool head. Having old students like Boom Boom on his team was touching. Having new characters like Khora of the Burning Heart was equally dope. Honestly, most Arraki mutants have been amazing additions to Marvel, just like Cable: Reloaded #1 will be to the Reign of X, if this issue is any indication.
