Mark Millar and Netflix announce “Sharkey the Bounty Hunter” as the latest Millarworld addition

The Millarworld collaboration between Mark Millar and Netflix continues with Sharkey the Bounty Hunter, a new comic and feature film. The comic will be written by Mark Millar and feature artwork from Simone Bianchi. Meanwhile, the film will feature a screenplay from Michael Bacall. Both properties will focus on an entertaining combination of science fiction and action set around the adventures of an intergalactic bounty-hunter. The first issue of Sharkey the Bounty Hunter is set for release on February 20th, 2019 and will be available from Image Comics.

Set in a brilliant new sci-fi universe, Sharkey is a blue-collar bounty-hunter tracking criminals across the galaxy in his converted, rocket-powered ice-cream truck. Aided and abetted by his ten-year-old partner, he’s out for the biggest bounty of his career. SHARKEY THE BOUNTY HUNTER has been developed as a feature film since last year, with writer Michael Bacall (Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, 21 Jump Street) writing the screenplay.
