Lantern City is a bold idea for a franchise built around the steampunk community. It has begun life as a Boom! Studios comic series, but it is currently in development as a television series, and possibly as a roleplaying game too. For a franchise to provide enough good content to cover a comic series, television series, and roleplaying game, it must have a very detailed and fully-realized world, and characters who face problems its audience can relate to. In short, it must have enough depth and enough detail to ensure that fans will want to return to that world again and again. Few franchises actually do this well, with Star Wars and Star Trek being among the standouts. However, Lantern City seems to have a creative team that is strong enough to create a steampunk franchise that could stand with the aforementioned giants.
