The Hollywood Reporter via
Dark Horizons are telling us that Intrepid Pictures have picked up the rights to the comic book series
The Expendable One.
Shane Kuhn and
Brendan Cowles have signed on to write the script.
Intrepid Pictures partners Marc D. Evans and Trevor Macy will produce the feature, which centers on a typical suburban guy who accidentally injects himself with a serum that allows his body to heal from any injury. He tries to help some locals with the aid of a police radio, but when the CIA recruits him to find a serial killer, he finds he is in over his head.
You can see a sneak peak of the comic series by visiting the Viper Comics official website by
clicking here. They have some panels from a single issue and I must say it looks like a load of fun, but the artwork itself I'm not too much of a fan of. It looks a little cartoony, a little childish perhaps.
