Mark Millar has teased that he’s begun work on a 10-part spin-off to his and Frank Quitely’s Jupiter’s Legacy – titled Jupiter’s Requiem. The writer revealed it on Twitter:

The script purposefully omits the artist of the series (unless you know someone named “TOP SECRET”).
The first panel’s description (“Open on Earth 50,000 years ago”) infers that the series – or at least the first panel – will be a prequel to the original Jupiter’s Legacy. Several years ago, Millar partnered with several artists on a 1950s set 10-issue prequel titled Jupiter‘s Circle.
A TV adaptation of Jupiter’s Legacy is currently in production with Netflix – who acquired Jupiter’s Legacy and many other of Millar’s creator-owned titles in 2017.
