Hivemind, the company behind The Expanse on Amazon, has teamed up with EC Comics to produce two screen projects.
Comic book publisher EC Comics, whose name you may recognize from titles like Tales From the Crypt, Weird Science, Two-Fisted Tales, and Mad Magazine, is getting back into the screen adaptation business. Or, more accurately, the publisher has signed a deal with production company Hivemind to bring some of its creations to new life.
To put the deal into context, Hivemind is the production company behind Netflix's The Witcher, which looks very cool, and has Scary Stories to Tell In the Dark currently in the works at CBS Films. Hivemind is also currently producing The Expanse for Amazon.
Which comics will EC Comics and Hivemind team up for first? According to Deadline, the partnership will focus on Weird Fantasy and a biopic of EC Comics publisher William M. Gaines...

EC Comics, the legendary comic book publisher behind subversive and sublime brands like Tales From the Crypt, Weird Science, Two-Fisted Tales and Mad Magazine, has inked a partnership with Hivemind, the production company behind Netflix’s The Witcher series as well as the upcoming feature Scary Stories to Tell In the Dark from CBS Films.
The new partnership will roll out with two projects: Weird Fantasy, a television series based on the classic EC anthology series, and a biopic of EC publisher William M. Gaines, who was a firebrand figure in comics history and an infamous name to cultural crusaders of the the 1950s who targeted EC as purveyor of prurient material that directly led to juvenile delinquency. The 1950s moral panic led to an Congressional investigation that nearly doomed the entire comics industry.
