Prentice Penny Launches Comic Book Company, Already Developing Two Titles for TV (Exclusive)
“Prentice Penny keeps lining up post-Insecure work. The TV writer and producer, who recently inked a pack to move his Penny for Your Thoughts shingle to Disney’s Onyx Collective, is also turning his attention to comic books.”
“Partnering with Stranger Comics’ Founder Sebastian A. Jones, Penny is launching a yet-to-be-named joint venture to identify and support new talent in the independent comic book world — functioning as an incubator and development lab for BIPOC creators and their IP to find inroads to publication and adaptation to other mediums. Jones and Penny have already identified two projects, David Crownson’s Harriet Tubman Demon Slayer and Jaycen Wise from creator Uraeus, both of which area already be developing for TV.”
“WhatSex and the City would do is have four individual story lines and they would come in and out. I don’t think we’ll ever follow Kelli’s dating story, you know what I’m saying? I don’t think we’ll follow a Tiffany and [her husband] Derek [Wade Allain-Marcus] life story. For us, that’s never going to be a thing. How we use [Kelli and Tiffany] are as sounding boards and other POVs that our two main characters – and certainly Issa – are bouncing things off of. There’s no conservative effort to make all of them be an ensemble piece.“–Insecure showrunner Prentice Penny
