Joe Queseda and Charles Dorfman have announced the upcoming line of Shakespeare-based comics called Undiscover’d. Each of the new titles will be based on a Shakespeare play, but with a reimagining keeping original character names and core themes. All of the stories take place in our world.
The first title, Disciple, reimagines Shakespeare’s Hamlet.
“Shakespeare was the original master of spectacle and soul—he was blood, betrayal, lust, and ambition and, of course, heroics,” said Quesada. “His plays are timeless because they’re universally relatable and packed with emotional and narrative twists. We’re not doing straightforward adaptations or Classics Illustrated. We’re creating bold high-octane comics with heart—stories designed to introduce an entirely new generation to the Bard.”
The release date is still to be determined.
