TKO was founded in 2018 and has the unique selling point of its comics publishing entire storylines simultaneously in both print and digital. “We feel our companies’ combined strengths make an ideal partnership and forges a new model for TV adaptation that will benefit all parties, including our incredible creators.” “New Regency’s track record creating groundbreaking film and television aligns with our history of publishing critically acclaimed thought-provoking genre stories,” they said. In a statement, Simeone and Chun expressed their excitement in bringing their portfolio to a new medium. On the publisher’s end, co-founders Salvatore Simeone and Tze Chun will be in charge of helping the shows be developed and packaged with Regency. With an exclusive deal from New Regency, the production company whose resume includes films like Little Women and Ad Astra, TKO’s numerous creator-owned comics have the potential to become TV shows and be developed by Regency should they go forward. Though most of the heavy hitters are from publishers owned by big name corporations, the more independent and less flashy ones can still get a deal off the ground, and that’s what’s happening with TKO Studios. These days, it seems almost like a guarantee that a comic book will eventually become a TV show or movie.
