Netflix is making a huge name for themselves by adapting independent comic book graphic novels into live-action original series. On the heels of today’s Locke & Key’s official Season One trailer. Netflix debuted an official trailer for its upcoming original series, October Faction; a comic book series written by Steve Niles and published by IDW Publishing.
IDW’s October Faction is a Men In Black meets Riverdale series where dark family secrets and simmering high school angst all collide against the struggle between monsters and humans.
Plot Synopsis:
“October Faction” follows Fred (J.C. MacKenzie) and Deloris Allen (Tamara Taylor) who, after the death of Fred’s father, return to their hometown in New York with their 17-year-old twins Geoff (Gabriel Darku) and Viv (Aurora Burghart). Subsequently, Geoff and Viv’s lives are turned upside down when they discover their seemingly unremarkable insurance sales rep parents are, in fact, (spoiler alert!) trained assassins who hunt monsters.
October Faction was adapted and created by Damian Kindler who will serve as the showrunner and executive producer. The series is produced by High Park Entertainment in association with IDW Entertainment.
