SHELTON, CT – April 22, 2015 – (HISPANICIZE WIRE) – Scout Comics and Entertainment is proud to announce the formation of an exciting new comic book, intellectual property, and multi-media entertainment company!
Scout’s debut title will be SOLARMAN®, a re-launch of the Marvel comic book written by Stan Lee, cover by Michael Zeck, and created by Dave Oliphant!
Since its debut in 1989, the SOLARMAN® story has captivated readers’ imaginations about a young man on a quest to destroy evil with his newfound superpowers!
In 2015, the 21st century incarnation of SOLARMAN® will be written by Brendan Deneen (FLASH GORDON), Joe Illidge (DETECTIVE COMICS) with art by Josh Adams (DR. WHO)! The first issue of the new SOLARMAN® will feature covers by industry legends Neal Adams and Paul Green (STARSHIP TROOPERS).
This new SOLARMAN® is the story of Ben Tucker, a 20-year-old African- American hacker who lives in his father’s basement – not exactly how he pictured his life going. But when a terrifying alien cyborg attacks the International Space Station while it’s conducting solar energy experiments, Ben inadvertently downloads a strange, powerful virus. He soon finds himself infected with incredible power…and battling for his life – and for the future of the entire world!
“After three decades, we are thrilled to introduce SOLARMAN® to a new generation of comic lovers and have them experience this exciting 21st century superhero,” said Dave Oliphant, SOLARMAN® creator. “We are listening to our fans to keep the SOLARMAN® story relevant for today. Working with Brendan Deneen and the Scout Comics team is magical!”
