I haven't heard much talk about this movie. Brad Pitt's Plan B Entertainment has picked it up and Oscar-winner Patrick Osborne (Wreck-It Ralph, Tangled, The Polar Express, Big Hero 6) is directing it. It is based on Paul Pope's all-age superhero comic of the same name.
Quote:
Monsters roam through Arcopolis, swallowing children into the horrors of their shadowy underworld. Only one man is a match for them – the genius vigilante Haggard West. Unfortunately, Haggard West is dead. Arcopolis is desperate, but when its salvation comes in the form of a twelve-year-old demigod, nobody is more surprised than Battling Boy himself.
The 200-page color graphic novel is under $12 on Amazon.
