As announced today, SOUTHERN BASTARDS has gotten a pilot pickup for Hulu, from Onyx Collective, POV Entertainment, and Proximity Media, in Association With Fifth Season.
I imagine the Jason Latour debacle didn’t help its chances either. But I don’t know if that’s the core reason. It was already on hiatus when that all went down.
Since conspiracy theories are all the rage these days, we should make some suggestions for a mysterious reason at the root if it, or some wild set of details that don't seem to make sense unless you've been consuming conspiracy theories for the last decade.
How about the folks in charge at Hulu also really loved the series, & also wanted to see a conclusion, by Jason was already working on other stuff, & there were a handful of issues not worked out yet.
So the Hulu head first tried a few minor things, maybe a DM on social media, a call to a mutual contact, but Jason really didn't know how legit it might be. Then things started getting really weird...
Just disgraceful that Jason has never provided an update on finishing Souther Bastards seven years after the last issue was published. What a shite way to treat your fans.
I am curious if this means the comic is coming back…or if Jason will finish it in the show.
Oh why wasn’t it finished
I want to see how it ends?
Sorry, typo. Why WASNT it finished?
I don’t know.

That’s always possible. Like I said, I don’t know why it hasn’t concluded yet. Aside from the Jasons getting busy and Latour’s…fall from grace?
Oh what Jason latour debacle
I see your other comments. You know what I’m talking about.
Congratulations Jason and team!
What team? You mean Jason Latour, noted creep?
Maybe this could lead to another comic!!!!? PLEASE?

It’s because the co-creator harassed and assaulted several women.
Amazing! Nia DaCosta is cool.
This is incredible news. I truly, truly miss the comic series! Fingers crossed for Chris Cooper as Coach Boss 🤞
This is fantastic news . Comics were amazing . Combined 2 of my favorite hobbies : crime fiction and football . Crossing my fingers
is Jason Latour involved in anyway? We don’t forget what he did.
Congrats! Loved this book - hope to see the comic come back and finish the story too!
This is so awesome I loved this book!!! Some pretty incredible BTS talent involved too looks like
