kovacs- It would need filling out with the backstory from Phase II, I think, but this could make a great movie -- affectionately mocking of its 80s milieu.
I'm not so sure it would need the backstory from Phase II- Ph I worked fine on its own as a comic. They'd probably just flesh it out with more Lovecraftian Naziness, seeing as how everyone loved Hellboy.
It's surprising, in fact, now that GM is such a major comic-book brand, that Zenith has received so little attention; you can't even buy the original story unless you want to spend £25 a book on ebay.
Thereby hangs one of the more tortuous tales of British copyright law in recent years...
Thinking about it (actually as I'm typing this, so apologies for the idea seeming half-formed) I originally thought "yay! Zenith would be great as a movie/TV series" but I'm starting to wonder. Even a new Zenith comic that wasn't drawn by Yeowell would seem wrong, somehow.
I guess I just couldn't imagine them doing it well. But then, that was what I thought about the X-Men as well, so, y'know... |
