juddling Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 not sure about this idea but what the hey....... It’s like the old saying goes: “This might just be crazy enough to work.” BOOM! Studios, which is already heading a coup with its licensing of the Incredibles and the Muppet Show (as well as great series like Unthinkable and Irredeemable), now has one more weapon in its arsenal: Die Hard’s John %@$#%@#in McClane. According to solicits, Die Hard: Year One is due out in August, and will go back in time to 1976 to explore John’s first year in the police force, a la Batman Begins or Casino Royale. Howard Chaykin will be writing, while Steven Thompson will be drawing, which already sounds to be completely awesome, especially considering how often people in the comics industry talk about Die Hard.

Link I don't know how they are going to make Bruce Willis look young enough to pull this off. And if they are planning a different actor to play John McClane, I'm out.

BearSox Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 Is this a movie with real people, an animated movie, or comic book? I'm confused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
