Directed by David Oster, Todd McFarlane: Like Hell I Won’t follows the titular rebel who, at the beginning of his career, was turned away by numerous comic publications. He decided that since no one was recognizing his talent, he would take matters in his own hands. McFarlane eventually became the CEO of McFarlane Toys and President of Image Comics and Legendary Artist. The docu provides an in-depth view behind the mastermind that brought us Spawn and some of Marvel Comic’s most well-known artwork. It paints a portrait of his struggles to navigate and upend the status quo in the comic and toy industries.
The documentary will be released on Saturday, July 25 at 11:00 p.m. ET on SYFY’s YouTube channel, SYFY.com, and On Demand. Todd McFarlane: Like Hell I Won’t is produced by SYFY Wire through the network’s partnership with online content creation studio Tongal.
