Gravetrancers #1: Issue #1 of the new comic book series Gravetrancers is due out on December 13th from Black Mask Studios:
"On a journey to track down the grave of their estranged father, Maribel and Anthony find their way to the Malort Cemetery, a strange, seemingly abandoned field of mostly unmarked tombs. There they encounter an eccentric clan of grave-robbers who’ve devised a highly-addictive drug made from human remains–and the fresher the corpse, the stronger the dose. What started out as an attempt to reconnect with the past becomes a descent into a psychedelic,...

Some of the gang is getting back together for “Blade Runner 2049,” with at least Harrison Ford and Edward James Olmos returning from the original film to star in Denis Villeneuve‘s sequel. However, one face you won’t see is Rutger Hauer. The actor’s terrific turn as Roy Batty is one of the highlights of Ridley Scott‘s classic sci-fi, but quite obviously, having been killed off, he won’t be rolling into the followup.

"I would know if I was a replicant!" We're always on the lookout for good sci-fi short films. Tears In The Rain is an intriguing little short from South Africa that is clearly directly inspired by Blade Runner, set in the world of Philip K. Dick's novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?.
