HBO is developing a drama series based on Sebastian A. Jones' fantasy series, Asunda, per Deadline. The series was published by Stranger Comics.
Jones will co-write and executive produce the adaptation based on his graphic novels.
Asunda is set in the culturally rich but war-torn world of Asunda, where an orphan girl is born of two nations and raised in a small desert town. Hunted by all, she will search for her ancestors and the courage to bind them against an ancient enemy.
The world of Asunda has been showcased throughout a shared universe of works from the publisher. Titles include: Dusu, Erathune, Niobe: She is Life, The Untamed: A Sinner's Prayer, The Untamed: Killing Floor, Tales of Asunda and Waso.
Niobe's father is a king in a country that author Jones modeled on England and Europe, while her mother was the kidnapped female chief of a nomadic tribe of elves who roam a jungle region that correlates to West Africa. Hunted by all, Niobe will search for her ancestors and the courage to bind them against an ancient enemy.
