A movie that will never come out
I just read a piece by Mark Millar that was not really worht linking to, but mentioned that John Cassady was just signed to direct a feature film. This makes me think several things all in rapid succession:
• Is this the first time a comics artist has made the leap to directing?
• This makes some amount of sense. He's an incredible visual storyteller, and presumably if the script is good he'll have a really great handle on how to tell it. I have no concept of what actual story he might bring to the table, but telling the story? No problem.
•His storyboard artist is going to have a hell of a time.
•Astonishing X-Men is never ever going to finish. This says nothing of Planetary, which only has like 1 issue left, right? That issue is NEVER going to come out.

Pssst! Frank Miller!
Frank Miller was, correct me if I'm wrong, also writing comics before he got hired as a director.
