Over on our Image documentary’s Kickstarter page, we’ve debuted the film’s first live-action trailer. This new trailer highlights some of the maverick company’s founders, including Marc Silvestri, Todd McFarlane, and Jim Valentino.
will examine one of the most important and daring moves in modern comic book history. Twenty years ago, a group of artists left Marvel Comics to create their own company, a company that continues to influence mainstream comics and culture to this day. Image Comics began as more than just a publisher — it was a response to years of creator mistreatment, and it changed comics forever.
The Image Revolution will tell the amazing story of this from-scratch company, from its founders’ work at Marvel, through Image’s early days, the ups and downs of the ’90s, and the publisher’s new generation of creator-owned properties like The Walking Dead. We will tell this story through new interviews with the people who made it happen. And what better time than during Image’s 20th anniversary to do it?
We have turned to Kickstarter to help fund this project. This is your chance to support discussion about the merits of comics and to help document stories about the people who have had a part in shaping contemporary pop culture.
If you are interested in interviewing the director, Patrick Meaney, email us at sequart@gmail.com.
Looks good.
