Chi-Chian makes its way to the movie screen

Review: Dr. Horrible

From the moment Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog hit the intardwebz, fans of musical comedies, with a superhero hook have been in seventh heaven. While there have been a couple of attempts to tell a Dr. Horrible origin story, the official take on the villain’s past can only be found in the pages of Dr. Horrible #1 from Dark Horse Comics.

Review: Nola #1

Scorned and left for dead by the man she thought she loved, Nola Thomas returns to the flooded city of New Orleans a different woman than she was prior to the onslaught of Hurricane Katrina.

Chi-Chian makes its way to the movie screen

By: Stephen Schleicher | October 28th, 2009

Framelight has announced it has acquired the rights the six-part comic book “Chi-Chian” to adapt the story for the big screen.

The fairy tale-tinged “Chi-Chian” is set in a dystopian New York — the city has lost its independence and become a prefecture of Japan — and centers on a seemingly ordinary young woman who has been tapped as a heroine and must fight samurais, robots and zombies to protect her loved ones.

The series is written by musician Aurello Voltaire. No word on who will write the movie adaptation, but Jeffry Erb and Robert Robinson Jr. are set to produce.
