A new Steampunk slanted television series was recently announced that’s likely to be of interest to those already fans of SyFy’s Warehouse 13 series. In this spin-off series, the sister of the author H.G. Wells is actually a brilliant scientist and author who uses her brother as a front for acceptance of her research and writings in her Victorian world.

For those unfamiliar with the premise of the series, Warehouse 13 revolves around two US Secret Service Agents who are assigned to warehouse 13, which houses supernatural “artifacts”. They are tasked with retrieving missing Warehouse 13 artifacts and investigating reports of new ones artifacts.

The setting for the prequel takes place during the era of Warehouse 12 when it was located in Great Britain. Wells’ sister opts to remain a free agent despite Warehouse 12′s efforts to recruit her and uses her many talents to solve murders and other mysteries.

This could be interesting if done well. We’ll have to wait and see what comes of it!
