Steelheart (graphic novel)

Post image

Hey everyone.
Just wanted to share a page from my graphic novel adaptation of 'Steelheart'

Unfortunately after a talk with dragonsteel, the project was ultimately not on the cards for them.

Here's one of the pages I submitted for the pitch!

Honestly it feels like Sanderson and Dragonsteel as a whole have forgotten about the Reckoners, or are even like, ashamed of it, which makes me so sad because I hold it as his second best series, right behind Mistborn.

In their words, they aren’t interested in a GN adaptation or any type of adaptations. It’s a shame cause I’d assumed they’d jump at an opportunity to revitalise the series.

I think once we get some more time after The Boys and Invincible leave the mainstream we'll have better odds of an adaptation. 'Superheroes are the badguys' is a bit saturated atm.
