Tape Dec | Charles Soule & Will Sliney

Fan favorite creator Declan Shalvey took some time to talk to Charles Soule and Will Sliney about how the two work together and how their Shrouded College series has grown over the years. The three have known one another for a long time and share some incredible insight into the creative process and how working in comics is one big jam session.

Will & Charles' latest project, The Cold Witch, promises fans an icy horror tale of revenge and dark sorcery set in frozen Siberia and is perhaps best described as John Wick—but with zombies! It follows the tale of a woman wronged who goes to truly desperate lengths to avenge her murdered love.

Soule and Sliney’s ‘The Shrouded College’ is an interconnected set of seven adventure/horror stories that will be published in comic and graphic novel formats over the next several years. Taken together, they tell the stories of various characters enlisted to become secret agents fighting a supernatural cold war on the side of the Shrouded College, a down-and-out organization on the edge of destruction. An exclusive scoop via DEADLINE announced that “The Shrouded College is in the works as a TV series after Seth MacFarlane’s Fuzzy Door and UCP secured the rights. The project is in active development at the Peacock streaming network…[Soule and Sliney] will exec produce the project alongside MacFarlane, Erica Huggins and Rachel Hargreaves-Heald for Fuzzy Door.”
