Comic Books Still Our Primary Source of Movie Ideas: 'Mage' Movie Coming
From iwatchstuff, Ready for a Mage movie, Mage fans? Because that's happening, now. As Variety says it:
"Watchmen" producer Lloyd Levin is set to bring seminal '80s comicbook "Mage" to the bigscreen. Levin has acquired bigscreen rights to Matt Wagner's 15-book collection that makes up "The Hero Discovered" arc.
Story -- a reinterpretation of the legend of Camelot -- centers on Kevin Matchstick, an alienated young man who discovers he has superhuman abilities, gains a magic baseball bat and defeats the nefarious plans of a being called the Umbra Sprite.
So this is a movie about the magic guys from World of Warcraft? I wasn't paying attention.

This could be good kind of like Kick Ass was good. As a story it's small in scope, but interesting and feisty.
I think the "guy has super powers but doesn't know how to use them" shtick has yet to be fully tapped in cinema. At least not until they make a movie of Greatest American Hero. Are they doing that?
