I hope they do sort of a "Sin City" esque take on the movie... very stylized so that they show the cross-hatching and such. I just read this book which was great!

That huge book is, like, eighteen bucks. And I bought mine with a Borders coupon so it was something like thirteen bucks for a book that weighs more than all of DC's New Gods hardcovers combined. I see everything Fincher directs (ZODIAC is amazing), but I kind of prefer this super creepy organic stuff on the page - otherwise, it's Cronenberg's EXISTENZ all over again. > You know what’s crazy?

Outside of Zack Snyder, Aja is one of the most clueless style-over-substance directors to emerge in the past decade. Neither of them has any clue how to develop a character and both think that excessive gore equals visionary filmmaking. At least with Fincher, Burns's original material gets a director that actually understands both visual composition and serious character development.

Terrific news!

A good book is a good book. Don't look to Hollywood to validate your literature for you. Black Hole is one of the best comics of the last decade and you're missing out by not reading it.

I'm sure many of those didn't fall through because of him, so to blame him for projects that didn't get made that he was attached to is silly, and shows a bit of a lack of understanding for how films get made. As for this project, I picked this up in a Borders and flipped through, and was interested, but not enough at that moment to shell out the cash for it. If this look like it will actually make it to the big screen, then I will definitely have to pick this up. Well, if I was him, I would do the same thing.

Wasn't he also attached to a TORSO adaptation? And a "The Killer" adaptation? The dude slaps his name on just about anything he thinks is interesting..

Few comics have achieved the levels of creepiness and discomfort that this book matches. After having read the 1st few issues many years ago, I picked up the collection, and it hold up.
