Keanu Reeves received an Inkpot Award for his contributions to comics and movies during Saturday’s BRZRKR panel in Hall H at Comic-Con 2024.

Inkpot Awards are to individuals for their contributions to the worlds of comics, science fiction/fantasy, film, television, animation, and fandom services, according to Comic-Con International.

“Honestly, if it were just my choice, I would have given it to you just for The Matrix,” said Eddie Ibrahim, Director of Programming at Comic-Con International, while presenting the award amid a standing ovation.

The actor and musician, who had his breakthrough role in the sci-fi comedy Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure in 1989, has starred in numerous iconic films and blockbuster hits, including Point Break (1991) and Speed (1994), as well as the highly influential sci-fi Matrix film series.

“The Matrix changed my life. Over these years, it’s changed so many other people’s lives in really positive ways,” Reeves said about the iconic sci-fi film.

Reeves joined the panel at Hall H to promote his original comic book series BRZRKR, which he co-wrote with New York Times bestselling author Matt Kindt. It is set to receive a movie adaptation, in which Keanu will star, as well as a subsequent Netflix animated series. Comic book artist Ron Garney who had drawn BRZRKR was also in attendance.

The screenwriter of the eight-episode show “Terminator Zero” Mattson Tomlin, also made an appearance to talk about the live-action film adaptation of BRZRKR, which Tomlin is writing.

Eisner-Award Winning “The Silver Coin” Creator Michael Walsh Launches Cyberpunk Series “Nullhunter” In October

Posted on by

nullhunterMichael Walsh, the Eisner Award-winning creator of The Silver Coin, as well as upcoming Skybound miniseries Universal Monsters: Frankenstein and The Horizon Experiment: The Sacred Damned, is setting out on an epic quest with rising star artist Gustaffo Vargas (Marvel’s Voices X-Men) to create new sci-fi series Nullhunter, a neon-infused cyberpunk retelling of the Labors of Hercules set amongst the stars. This reimagining of classic Greek mythology, that interplays ’80s-inspired dystopian storytelling and art in the same vein as fan-favorites like Ronin and Blade Runner, will set sail when issue #1 hits shelves in October.

In Nullhunter, Clay is a war hero who faces unspeakable tragedy after returning home. Seeking justice, he’s forced into service for his estranged father’s powerful company, OLYMP0S. His first mission takes him to faraway N3M-3A on the trail of a hijacked shipment of war lions. In seeking exoneration, this quest of twelve near-impossible labors will lead Clay to the very edges of space as he discovers the true source of evil in the cosmos.

“When I was a kid, I was obsessed with Greco-Roman mythology. I’d spend hours pouring over old mythology books that I’d rented from the library while drawing my own versions of Hercules, Zeus, Poseidon, and all the larger-than-life gods and monsters. For a long time, I’ve wanted to take a crack at making a Hercules comic, but I could never find a unique and original way in,” said Walsh.

The Last Nova’s Galaxy-Spanning Battles Continue In “Conquest 2099”

Posted on by

Conquest-2099Today’s launch of ANNIHILATION 2099 took readers beyond the scope of Earth, revealing the impact 2099 events have on the entire galaxy and beyond. ANNIHILATION 2099 #1 kicked off with a bang as the new Nova 2099 removed his iconic helmet and turned out to be none other than WOLVERINE! Over the course of ANNIHILATION 2099, Orlando and artists Ibraim Roberson, José Luís, Pete Woods, Ario Anindito and Dale Eaglesham will shape the 2099 cosmos and set the stage for the next 2099 epic launching this October—CONQUEST 2099, a new limited series by Orlando, Roberson, Luís, and more.
 
On CONQUEST 2099, Orlando said, “ANNIHILATION 2099 was a blast! But the only thing better than building out the cosmic side of Marvel’s iconic cyberpunk future with an incredible squad of collaborators is getting to bring them together with the heroes of Earth for a galaxy-shaking epic of passion, revenge, and action! CONQUEST 2099 follows Dracula into the future as a tragic antihero, an imperfect leader with a righteous cause topped only by his bloodlust. Here’s a space blockbuster that takes us from one side of the galaxy to the other as a ragtag band of heroes from Earth and beyond leap into the fray to protect all life not just from Dracula and his vampire legion…but the something worse–the conquerors of the vampire homeworld, the Death Spiders.”
 
THE IMPALER SCORNED. Dracula has conquered a world determined to quash him! Now, with an army at his back, he sets his sights on the new vampire homeworld – Domus Draconum! What he discovers will shatter his dark heart and set him on a collision course with Nova, Spider-Man, the X-Men 2099, the new Spider-Woman of 2099, and more.
 
“ANNIHILATION 2099 was our chance to introduce some incredibly unique takes on classic Marvel characters, true in many ways to the core of the originals in theme and motive,” said Editor Mark Paniccia. “With CONQUEST 2099 these new heroes must battle the unparalleled strategy and experience of the classic Marvel Dracula, a proven leader, conqueror and monarch who now has an army of alien vampires at his command! The cosmos will never be the same!”
