io9: Dark Horse Is Turning William Gibson’s Alien 3 Script Into a New Comic
Even since I read and then got William Gibson to autograph my copy of his Alien 3 script, I’ve been wanting to see it realized. Looks like Dark Horse Comics is finally going to make that happen.
Now, though, Dark Horse Comics is planning to realize Gibson’s vision as an all-new comic book series adapted from Gibson’s script and illustrated by Johnnie Christmas.
In an interview with CBR, Gibson spoke about what a strange experience it was to eventually see that the version of Alien 3 that made it to theaters bore virtually no resemblance to the script he’d turned in.
