Banijay Rights has teamed up with Twisted comics to turn selected Black Mirror storylines into comic books.

Black Mirror season seven is currently in the works, but Charlie Brooker’s cult series is about to leap off the screen, too.

Banijay Rights has teamed up with Twisted Comics to bring some of the series’ storylines from the screen to the page, as reported by Deadline. Twisted Comics will be creating “immersive comic books comprising iconic Black Mirror storylines” that will be available in mid-2025.

“It has long been a dream of mine to extend Black Mirror – one of my ‘hero brands’ – into comic book form. Now that dream is a reality, and I believe fans of the show will love what we are planning. Watch this space,” said Neil Gibson, the founder of Twisted Comics.

A dedicated website will go up in early 2025, and fans will be able to pre-order the books.

“Black Mirror needs no introduction as one of television’s uniquely engrossing brands. The show’s unpredictable and unexpected episodes will be a perfect fit for this visionary comic book series, which we’re in no doubt will appeal to a whole new dimension of fans,” commented David Christopher, Director of Licensing & Merchandising for Banijay Rights. “I’d encourage fans to get registering now to keep updated on the comic’s developments and release.”

The new season of Black Mirror will premiere on Netflix next year and the stacked cast includes Awkwafina, Peter Capaldi, Emma Corrin, Paul Giamatti, Rashida Jones, Billy Magnussen, Cristin Milioti, Chris O’Dowd, Issa Rae, Tracee Ellis Ross, Jimmi Simpson and Harriet Walter to mention a few.

Season seven will also include a sequel episode to 2017’s ‘USS Callister’, which saw Jesse Plemons’ programmer trap his colleagues’ clones in an elaborate, Star Trek – like game. Without spoiling anything, the end of ‘USS Callister’ left things open for the characters to return and the episode is the first Black Mirror episode to receive a sequel.

There are no solid release dates for the new season or the line of comic books, but we’ll keep you posted on those.
