Syfy Channel Adapting 4 Comic Book Properties for TV

Over on Deadline, Syfy announced Pax Romana, a comic book series from Jonathan Hickman published by Image Comics would be developed for TV. Circle of Confusion, headed by David Alpert (The Walking Dead TV) will produce, and Syfy veterans Matthew Federman and Stephen Scaia of Warehouse 13 are writing the show. Pax Romana has a modern Special Forces unit going on a time-travel adventure, trying to prevent World War III by taking the fight back - to ancient Rome.

Meanwhile, THR got the announcement of three more comic book bases series coming to Syfy. Frank Miller’s Ronin, David Schulner's Clone, and Charles Soule’s Letter 44 are all in the works for the channel.
