Nathan Fillion — known for his iconic roles in The Rookie, Firefly, and most recently as Guy Gardner in James Gunn’s Superman — is adding a new title to his resume: comic book creator. The beloved actor is stepping into the world of graphic novels with “Witness Point,” a thrilling new project that marks his debut in the comics industry.
✍️ From Actor to Storyteller
Co-created with writer and longtime collaborator PJ Haarsma, Witness Point represents a passion project for Fillion. The story promises a mix of mystery, small-town secrets, and psychological tension — all with the cinematic feel fans have come to expect from Fillion’s work.
“Comics have always been a big part of my life,” Fillion said in a recent interview. “I grew up on them, and now I get to help create one. It’s a dream come true.”
🕵️ What Is “Witness Point” About?
Set in a quiet lakeside town, Witness Point follows a former detective who returns home only to uncover a conspiracy that threatens to unravel everything he once believed. Blending elements of crime drama, noir, and supernatural suspense, the story promises sharp dialogue, layered characters, and a deeply personal narrative.
Fans of Castle, The Rookie, or even True Detective will likely find something to love in this new tale.
🖼️ Exclusive First Look
The first preview pages reveal a moody, atmospheric art style with stark shadows, muted colors, and expressive character designs. Illustrated by a yet-to-be-named artist, the visuals enhance the tension and emotional weight of the story.
“We wanted something that felt grounded but also cinematic — something that lives in the quiet moments as much as the action,” said Haarsma.
📅 When and Where Can You Read It?
Witness Point is set to be released as a limited comic series later this year, with the first issue debuting in comic book shops and digital platforms in Fall 2025. A collected trade edition is expected to follow.
