About a week ago it was announced that Frank Miller will provide the art and team with writer Thomas Wheeler for Cursed, a young adult novel that…

…tells the story of King Arthur from the point of view of Nimue, the 16-year-old girl who first wielded Excalibur and ultimately became the Lady of the Lake.

Although the book won’t be out until 2019, Netflix has decided to pick it up as a series!  For full details check out Netflix Orders TV Series ‘Cursed’ From Frank Miller & Tom Wheeler Based On Book Reimagining King Arthur Legend at Deadline.com.

Bermie Wrightson is a legend.  If you’re reading this, you probably know that.  If not, Google Wrightson and then come back.

Wrightson is mostly remembered for his work in the horror genre, specifically Frankenstein. Wrightson’s final project was Frankenstein Alive, Alive! with writer Steve Niles.  When Wrightson realized he couldn’t finish the project, he asked artist Kelley Jones to finish it.

Jones’ interview with Alex Dueben at Comic Book Resources is one of the most moving, touching and emotional interviews I can ever remember:  Kelley Jones on Swamp Thing, Completing Wrightson’s Frankenstein

Frank Miller will provide the art and team with writer Thomas Wheeler for Cursed, a young adult novel that…

…tells the story of King Arthur from the point of view of Nimue, the 16-year-old girl who first wielded Excalibur and ultimately became the Lady of the Lake.

We can expect the release of Cursed in the fall of 2019.

It was also announced today that Frank Miller has signed a five-project deal with DC Comics.  The first two projects are:

  • Superman: Year One: Miller will write and John Romita Jr. will provide the art.

  • A graphic novel focusing on  Carrie Kelley, Robin from Miller’s classic Batman: The Dark Knight Returns.  Again, Miller will serve as writer and Ben Caldwell will take on the art chores.

  • Miller is also set to write three undisclosed projects to complete the five-project deal.

Boy, I sure wish a new Miller Sin City yarn was in the works.
