EXCLUSIVE: New I AM LEGEND writer will SOON BE INVINCIBLE?

I believe this is an OWF exclusive, at least I have been unable to see this story picked up anywhere else. Though I do have a feeling some outlets are waiting for some more details before writing up the story. From our most trusted and so far 100% accurate source comes the news that Austin Grossman's popular superhero novel SOON I WILL BE INVINCIBLE has been picked up by an unknown studio for a film adaptation. D.B. Weiss, the hot screenwriter recently hired by Warner Bros. to adapt the I AM LEGEND prequel is on board to scribe. The novel (note, not Graphic Novel) was published in 2007 and carries this synopsis through Wiki...

The novel is told through two alternating first person narratives of the characters Dr. Impossible and Fatale. Dr. Impossible is a self-proclaimed supervillain of the mad genius variety, who suffers from "Malign Hypercognition Disorder" ("evil genius" syndrome). Fatale is a female cyborg and the novel begins with her called up to join the superhero group The Champions, a Justice League of America/Avengers-style team in the wake of the disappearance of the superhero CoreFire.
I have seen the book in my local book store self several times but have never cared to pick it up. Such positive reviews like THIS ONE, make me really excited for it though. I am about to contact the book's author and we will see if we can get this information confirmed soon. Anyone read the book, is it a worthy addition to the current climate of superhero movies?
