"What doesn't work is that we couldn't control that the movie came out on the first weekend of lockdown," Seeley told SYFY WIRE. The issue will also be the first installment in the final story arc for Seeley, with art by Brett Booth and Pedro Andreo. Now Valiant is finally bringing the big screen supporting cast of KT and Wigans into the present-day continuity of the comics in Bloodshot #10, set for release on January 13, 2021.
Over the past few months, comic publishers have been slowly getting back to their revised 2020 schedules as shops reopen, and the Bloodshot film - which is still available on VOD and on Starz - is returning to theaters as they begin to re-open. Movie theaters closed and the film pivoted to digital, disrupting the next two pieces. The film would soon be available on demand as the studio pivoted to where the audience was in the early days of lockdown (namely, at home). In Valiant Comics' 2020 Free Comic Book Day special, fan favorite characters from the film KT (played by Eiza González) and Wilfred Wigans ( Lamorne Morris) were officially introduced in a short story written by Tim Seeley and Jason Masters.īut there was no Free Comic Book Day event around the country, and comic shops' distribution model quickly became a mish-mash of curbside pick-up, online ordering, and anything in-between. When the Bloodshot movie starring Vin Diesel and Sam Heughan opened in theaters March 13, it was supposed to be the first piece of a carefully planned connection between the film and the comics that would have read beautifully.
