DC Entertainment is pushing The Spectre as the next TV project:
Fox has bought The Spectre, a drama series project based on the DC Comics superhero character co-created by Superman co-creator Jerry Siegel and Bernard Baily. Brandon Camp (John Doe) will write the adaptation and executive produce with feature producer Bill Gerber (Gran Torino).Not one of my favorite DC characters, but who knows.
The Spectre, which has received a script commitment, centers on a former cop serving time in afterlife limbo who hunts down earthly criminals on behalf of the dead — and mortals soon to be dead if ultimate justice is not served.

ReplyDeleteI liked the little mini-toon they did with him in the 70's movie style. (It was an extra on one of their direct t DVD movies.) But I doubt a show would have a budget to do something similar. The Spectre is supposed to be an emissary of God. God's avenging hand. That has a lot of scary implications for a tv show. But you're right I never really understood the Spectre or got into him much. Wonder if they'll make him the black guy, the white guy or Hal Jordan?
