Published by Boom! Studios, Matt Kindt and Tyler Jenkins’ graphic novel series “Grass Kings” is being adapted for the small screen by Legendary Television, Deadline reports.
The Eisner Award-nominated graphic novel series arrived on the scene back in 2017, and Grant Wheeler and Ben Freiburger have been tasked with adapting it for TV.
“The rural mystery story follows the rise of the Grass Kingdom, an off-the-grid Alaska haven for outsiders that faces dark threats as it grows.”
“Grass Kings is a rural mystery series that follows Robert Pike as he creates a separatist society among the island homesteads of Alaska to insulate himself against the loss of his murdered daughter. With help from the fellow outcasts and misfits that join him, Robert will grow an off-the-grid community into his ideal civilization. But as his kingdom grows, so does the list of adversaries that threaten to tear down what he’s created. Only with the help of his family can Robert hold the demons within, and without, at bay.”
