The Expanse Comic
Posted By:

The Expanse was an excellent television series and possibly many of its fans are still holding out hope of continuation. It did come back from the dead once, saved by big fan of the show Jeff Bezos and brought to Amazon after being cancelled by Syfy.

Instead of another return it's getting the comic book treatment with issue one of a twelve part series being published in April.

The Expanse: The Dragon's Tooth will pick up after the sixth television season, and be set between the novels Babylon's Ashes and Persepolis Rising.

Damn.

Sure, continuation in some form might be better than nothing but it was such a great show.

Had it run all the way through to the end of the books it could have been huge.

It's one thing to begin a show and ask viewers to come on board without knowing if its story will ever be finished.

Because cancellations happen.

It's a very different thing to have a completed series of excellent quality with a satsifying ending.

Science fiction doesn't have many of those.

The Expanse: The Dragon's Tooth #1 will be published in April with the remaining 11 issues following monthly.
