Time Bomb Comics passes Kickstarter goal for Gerry Anderson anthology

Time Bomb Comics surpassed its Kickstarter funding goal for a new Spectrum Anthology within the first four hours of the campaign being live.

The anthology features three new comics set in worlds created by Gerry Anderson: New Captain Scarlet, Space Precinct and Terrahawks.

“Spectrum marks the first licensed title released through Time Bomb Comics and I’m delighted it features characters and concepts that are truly warmly recognised around the world,” said Time Bomb Comics chief Steve Tanner.

“Like many of my generation I grew up enjoying the television shows created by Gerry Anderson and I’m thrilled that we’ve partnered with Anderson Entertainment to create new stories featuring some of his most iconic shows. Captain Scarlet, Space Precinct, Terrahawks and Time Bomb Comics – what a combination!”

Anderson Entertainment chief, writer, producer and director, Jamie Anderson, added: “Seeing these three Anderson titles getting a new lease of life is a real thrill for me. The Time Bomb team has done a fantastic job of building out the worlds, keeping an authentic feeling to the stories, and making stunning looking strips. I can’t wait for Anderson fans across the globe to enjoy these new stories”

The 44-page anthology is the first publication to come out of a new partnership with Anderson Entertainment in a deal brokered by Larkshead Licensing.
