Matthew Dickens Rides The Devil’s Train

Matthew Dickens rides the Devil's Train

It’s the greatest heist of all time — literally. A time-traveling immortal stuntman gets a crew together with one goal: rob the Devil’s train. Writer/actor/stuntman Matthew Dickens dreamed it up, and it’s coming true. The Devil’s Train isn’t just a graphic novel coming in Summer 2025 from Bliss on Tap Publications; it’s a big budget movie in development with director J.J. Perry.

I met Matthew at Comic-Con in 2023, and we’ve talked a few times over some fits and starts on this project. Once a comic book called Sh*tkicker Bullseye, it’s become the more marquee friendly The Devil’s Train, though maybe a series of adventures could be called Cliffhanger Cowboys.

Whatever the title, Matthew has passion for this story and bringing it to audiences. With this conversation, I think you’ll agree. It must be told — and in a few months, it will be read by comics fans everywhere! You can pick up a zero issue preview at DriveThru Comics now!
