Tom Hardy's Arcbound Headed to Dark Horse Comics

As a long-time gamer and comic book enthusiast, I’m thrilled to pieces about the upcoming “Arcbound” series from Dark Horse Comics! Tom Hardy teaming up with industry legends like Scott Snyder, Frank Tieri, and Ryan Smallman is nothing short of a dream collaboration.


As a gamer, I’m excited to share that this fall, I’ll get to explore a new comic series called “Arcbound,” published by Dark Horse Comics in collaboration with actor Tom Hardy and some comic book veterans. This dystopian, science-fiction tale takes place in a future that leaves me curious and intrigued. It’s the first step in building a shared universe, an announcement made last year that left fans on edge.

Hardy collaborated with beloved writers like Scott Snyder of “Batman” and “Nocterra” fame, as well as Marvel, DC, and Archie veterans Frank Tieri, teaming up with Brazilian artist Ryan Smallman. The release date is scheduled for November 13.

Nick Rose, CEO of Arcbound Studios, expressed his great enthusiasm: “I’m deeply thrilled to collaborate with exceptional storytellers from various fields, not only on creating this book but also expanding it into a whole universe,” he shared. The team’s diverse talents enable the development of a captivating and engrossing world that goes beyond conventional narratives. This innovative project has the potential to extend its life beyond the pages and blossom into films and other media. I eagerly look forward to sharing this extraordinary adventure with fans.

“Back when the project was announced, Hardy expressed his fascination with the creative process in storytelling through comics. He described it as a captivating playground where a strong creative team and illustration skills are all that’s needed to construct magnificent worlds. These worlds offer the liberty to shape, adjust, redefine, destroy, and rebuild without financial restrictions. The canvas is vast and open-ended, allowing us to delve into the complexities of human nature, character development, and endless realms, all subject only to our collective creativity. It’s a privilege to collaborate with industry veterans like Scott, Frank, and Ryan in bringing the Arcbound universe to life. Their world is as thrilling for comic enthusiasts as it is for creators.”
