Blumhouse, IDW Dark Plan Original The Purge Comic for Late 2027
Writer Dan Watters and artist Juan José Ryp are making the comic, which launches a partnership between Blumhouse and IDW Publishing's horror imprint.
Blumhouse and IDW Publishing's horror imprint IDW Dark have announced an original The Purge comic, written by Dan Watters with art by Juan José Ryp. The comic is scheduled to arrive in late 2027, according to Collider.
The project launches a partnership between Blumhouse and IDW Dark. It is a new installment in The Purge franchise told on the page rather than on screen.
The film series began with a story confined to a wealthy family's home, with Ethan Hawke and Lena Headey playing parents protected by an expensive security system during the annual night of legalized crime. Later sequels moved beyond the house to show how people without such protection fared.
No further details on the comic's story, format or price were given in the announcement.
