Sleepy Hollow is one of the best returning series of the fall TV line-up. Fox has it bundled with the new series Gotham on Monday nights, giving the other networks some real competition. Created by Star Trek talents Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci, Sleepy Hollow expands Washington Irving’s story into a modern supernatural mystery-adventure.

Tom Mison is Ichabod Crane, who finds himself in the town of Sleepy Hollow more than 200 years after his death. He partners with a local police lieutenant, Abbie Mills, played by Nicole Beharie. In its second season, Crane’s wife Katrina (Katia Winter) has been kidnapped by the Headless Horseman, and Crane’s son turns out to be a psychopath, played by John Noble (Lord of the Rings, Fringe).

Sleepy Hollow is great Halloween season TV watching, and it now has a new comic book tie-in series arriving at comic book stores today. We have a preview of Issue #1 after the break, courtesy of BOOM! Studios.

One independent comic book publisher drew our attention this week more than the others. BOOM! Comics has two new comic issues out tomorrow for sequel stories to classic films–Big Trouble in Little China and RoboCop–and it made an announcement about a new series coming our way based on the television show Sleepy Hollow. We’ve got previews of Big Trouble and RoboCop after the break and first images from Sleepy Hollow.

John Carpenter and BOOM! Comics’ Big Trouble in Little China monthly is so much fun you’ve got to be adding it to your pull list at your local comic book store. Following the adventures of Jack Burton after the events of the original 1980s film, it’s a sequel that might as well be titled “The Sequel” with the same spirit, humor, and visuals as the original. Big Trouble is co-written by the great John Carpenter with Eric Powell and art by Brian Churilla of (the awesome) The Secret History of D.B. Cooper fame.

The other sequel-that-might-as-well-just-be-called-a-sequel is BOOM!’s new RoboCop series. Written by Joshua Williamson with art by Carlos Magno, the new series is far different from other recent RoboCop monthlies including Frank Miller’s version, and will be a welcome relief for fans of the classic movie who couldn’t or wouldn’t check out the reboot. That means look for plenty of the ugliest view of Detroit you’ve ever seen, lots of violence, crime, and over-the-top bullets flying. Too bad all the big baddies were killed in the original movie as they’d feel right at home here.
