I honestly don't know how to feel about this news courtesy of SciFi Wire regarding the upcoming Spirit film. I was somehow more comfortable having Jeph Loeb behind the wheel. I'm not a huge fan of either creator's ouvre but between the two Miller is definitely the unfavourite, as far as I'm concerned.On the plus side, I know Frank has an absolute reverence for the work and knew Eisner for years, so maybe it won't be a complete disaster. Still, I can't shake the nightmare image of Denny Colt flying through a twisted, grim and gritty Millerian cityscape spouting poorly cribbed Dashiel Hammett dialogue and calling The Octopus 'Punk'.
Brrr.
Only time will tell, I guess.
