The British Prepare a Response to the Marvel and DC Universes
In 2008, Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight became the first superhero blockbuster to hit the $ 1 billion mark at the worldwide box office. Since then, the club of billionaire films has been replenished with ten more film comics. The management of the British corporation Awesome Media & Entertainment realized that filming such films was a very promising and profitable business.The company opened a comic book production department last year. In the near future he will present to readers two starter works - Retrograde and #Guardian. The first graphic novel tells about a mysterious virus that turned evolution in the opposite direction, and the main character of the second will be an ex-CIA employee who has turned into a popular avenger. In addition, Awesome Media & Entertainment is creating a satirical comic strip Brexodus about Britain's secession from the Roman Empire, as well as a Cortex thriller about the police of the future, who have learned to penetrate the memory of witnesses of crimes. It is quite possible that in a couple of years the heroes of these works will go to large and small screens: yesterday the management of the British media corporation announced the launch of its own film and television department.  Fans of drawn stories can only wish that Awesome Media & Entertainment has become a worthy competitor to films and TV series based on Marvel and DC comics.
