Damon Dark is a highly popular cult science fiction series from Australia. It began in 1999, with a five part weekly series on Melbourne's Community TV 31, following a screening of a 65 minute version of the story "Maddox" at the 57th World Science Fiction Convention (Aussiecon Three) held in Melbourne. The series was later revived as a YouTube webseries which inspired several related webseries, including "The Young Damon Dark Adventures" in which the character is played as a teenager, and Vincent Kosmos, about a character who is a friend of Damon. The character of Damon Dark has also been the main focus of an independent stage production and a self-published novel. Notably, the character was also featured in an unsold TV pilot which was independently financed but made with the hope of acquiring a professional television sale nevertheless. The character was created by prolific writer, actor and director Adrian Sherlock who has written most of the Damon Dark stories and played the character, along with other actors such as Bruce Hughes and Jack Knoll.
