The San Diego Comic-Con panel for BAD IDEA will feature a preview of the horror series “IT DEMANDS SACRIFICE,” alongside exclusive giveaways and appearances by notable creators.

The press release follows:

Media Release – BAD IDEA’s massive San Diego Comic Con Panel just got even BIGGER!

On Friday, July 24th acclaimed filmmaker David Yarovesky (BRIGHTBURN) is taking the stage to unveil a frightening first look at his upcoming horror series – IT DEMANDS SACRIFICE!



David joins the writers behind this summer’s massive comic event, WARBIRD – blockbuster screenwriter Derek Kolstad (JOHN WICK) and New York Times best-selling writer Robert Venditti (SUPERMAN ‘78) and the visionary artist behind the record-smashing PLANET DEATH – Tomás Giorello (CONAN THE BARBARIAN).

This October, Emmy Award-winning screenwriter Philip Gelatt (Netflix’s LOVE, DEATH & ROBOTS), acclaimed filmmaker David Yarovesky, visionary artist Adam Pollina (X-FORCE), and master colorist Dean White (CONAN THE BARBARIAN) carve IT DEMANDS SACRIFICE #1, a shocking new comic book event, into comic shops around the globe.

On a quiet farm, Bronson, the youngest and smallest member of a close-knit family of goats, lives an idyllic life of sun-drenched fields, fresh hay, and sibling rivalries. His greatest concern is proving to his older siblings—and, more importantly, his imposing father—that he is more than just the runt of the herd.

Then, in a single night, everything changes.

A drug-fueled, sex-obsessed satanic hippie murder cult descends on the farm, slaughtering the family who raised and protected the goats before abducting Bronson and his loved ones. Deep in the wilderness, beneath a blood-red moon, hundreds of cult followers gather for an ancient ritual. Their purpose: to sacrifice the goats and summon a ravenous demon from beyond.

Now, the fate of his family rests on the shoulders of the one creature least prepared to save them.

Innocent, outmatched, and absurdly cute, Bronson must summon a courage he never knew he possessed as he confronts knife-wielding cultists, unspeakable horrors, and forces far beyond his understanding in a desperate attempt to rescue his family before they are offered up in blood.
