Star Trek's Zach Quinto going into comics

Zachary Quinto, whose unforgettable performance as Spock in 2009's Star Trek and run on Heroes place him in the firmament of sci-fi and fantasy fandom, will produce two new comics for Archaia through his production company Before the Door.

New York writer and director Victor Quinaz will write the graphic novel Mr. Murder Is Dead, and Michael McMillan, an actor in HBO's True Blood, will write a six-issue series titled Lucid. Quinaz and McMillan have been colleagues of the Before the Door gang for several years. Artists have not been named, but cover art premiered today at Comic-Con. Quinto and partners Neal Dodson and Corey Moosa, friedns since their Carnegie Mellon days, started Before the Door in 2008, with the goal of developing a variety of projects in different media, including film, television, internet and print.
