Several veterans from around the entertainment industry have banded together to shake up the horror and sci-fi space. As was first announced at this year's San Diego Comic-Con (via The Hollywood Reporter), Panick Entertainment is a new horror and sci-fi production company. Its focus will specifically be in the genre space, with plans to prioritize publishing and making films, TV shows, and games.
The company was founded by a team of comic industry veterans, including Kris Longo, who is heading up the company. Adam Schlagman (DC Comics), Mark McCann, Doug Pasko ("The Outpost"), and C. Christopher Chiang (DC Comics) are also part of the venture. The first project coming from the company is a new five-issue horror comic from David Dastmalchian of "The Last Voyage of the Demeter" and "Dune" fame. He'll be writing this currently untitled revenge tale alongside Leah Kilpatrick.

From writer Mark McCann, artist Phil Buckenham, and cover artist Christopher Lair, we have an exclusive look at Never Never #1 for Daily Dead readers!
"This terrifying Virus imprint comic series will now be available in comic stores for the first time! Never Never, as described by creator Mark McCann, is an amalgamation of Peter Pan, The Hunger Games, and Lord of the Flies. In other words, a survival horror fantasy inspired by classics but intended for a new age. In Never Never, a girl named Winter follows the boy-sprite Petros off to Never, Never...but this is no sweet children's bedtime tale. Instead, Winter must face something horrific: an island full of immortal cannibals with a dark secret that sustains its existence, in the most unnatural and awful of ways."
Writer Mark McCann had the following to say about his love of horror and how that informed the direction he...
