David Bowie’s The Man Who Fell To Earth graphic novel adaptation in the works from Titan

January 28, 2022 by Gary Collinson

Titan Comics has announced an upcoming graphic novel adaptation of the director Nicolas Roeg’s cult 1976 David Bowie-starring sci-fi movie The Man Who Fell to Earth from the creative team of writer Dan Watters (Cowboy Bebop) and artist Dev Pramanik (Dune: House Atreides).

“The Man Who Fell to Earth is a masterpiece of a film with an awful lot to say; about men, about the Earth, and lots of things in between,” said Dan Watters. “There are ideas in the film, about climate crises and corporate greed, that are more relevant now than they were when Nicolas Roeg set out to make it. And now here we are. I think it’s high time to look at the world through Thomas Newton’s mismatched eyes all over again. Perhaps he’ll see something we’ve been missing.”

Based on the classic science fiction novel by Walter Tevis (The Queen’s Gambit, The Hustler), The Man Who Fell to Earth follows an extra-terrestrial called Thomas Jerome Newton (played in the movie by David Bowie) who lands on Earth in search of water to save his dying home planet. Using his advanced scientific knowledge, Thomas becomes incredibly rich thanks to dozens of inventions his company releases. He uses his wealth to search for a way to transport water back to his home planet, but as his wealth and his fame grows, Thomas becomes a target of interest to the U.S. Government who begin to investigate him.

Check out the cover to the graphic novel here, along with some unlettered interior artwork…

Titan’s The Man Who Fell To Earth graphic novel adaptation is set for release in Fall 2022.
