According to Deadline’s coverage of the news, “King will also produce with Reina King via their Royal Ties banner, alongside Ryan Coogler, Zinzi Coogler, and Sev Ohanian of Proximity Media. Walker, Greene, Brown, and Drapetomedia’s Sean Owolo will executive produce. Bryan Edward Hill is currently rewriting the draft.”

Bitter Root is an ongoing comic book series following the Sangerye family, who once were known as the greatest monster hunters of all time and specialized in curing the souls of those infected by hate. But those days are fading. A terrible tragedy has claimed most of the family, leaving the surviving cousins divided between the desire to cure monsters or kill them. Now, though, there’s a new breed of monster loose on the streets of Harlem, and the Sangerye family must either come together or watch the human race fall to untold evil.

Bitter Root, Vol. 1  and Bitter Root, Vol. 2 trade paperbacks are both available now and can be purchased at your local comic book shop or through our ComiXology link.

Bitter Root #11 and Bitter Root #12 are available now at local comic book shops, and Bitter Root #13 will be available on Wednesday, May 26.
