Paapa Essiedu shared in an interview with The Times that he received a death threat – someone told him to quit his job or they would kill him. While reflecting on past experiences with racism, Essiedu said that although he doesn’t believe the threat will be carried out, no one should face such abuse for simply doing their job.

Titles like Alan Moore’s Swamp Thing redefined the possibilities of comic books, Camelot 3000 pioneered the idea of high-quality, prestige comics, Ronin showcased Frank Miller’s unique style, and New Teen Titans finally gave DC a series that could rival Marvel’s Uncanny X-Men.

Now, the team welcomes Oscar-winning production designer Nathan Crowley (Interstellar, Dunkirk) and Mohen Leo (Rogue One, The Martian), both incredibly talented when it comes to crafting believable sci-fi worlds.
