Dawson is exec producer, and her co-author on the Image Comics book “Occult Crimes Task Force,” David Atchinson, will write the script of “Believer” with Matthew Spradlin and Tom Feister.

Fans of the Sin City star shouldn’t get too excited, Dawson isn’t expected to star in the show as of this report.

A great website for comic lovers

I have oft proclaimed on these pages my love for comic books - especially those of the DC variety. While I enjoy an occasional Superman story in the pages of Batman or JLA, I don’t really read the Super titles that much. It is probably because Superman is always seen as a goody-goody and wins in the end.

I came across this website a few weeks ago and it really shows Superman as quite the opposite. In fact, he comes off as a dick.
