Aubrey Plaza's role was originally written for a middle aged man.

Started watching Arrow again from the start on Netflix and I forgot how much I missed serial killer Oliver Queen.

Also I got way too excited at Felicity Smoak's first appearance.

Kirkman announced he's leaving AMC and signing a deal with Amazon. Skybound will develop projects for Amazon and Amazon will have a right of first-refusal on Skybound stuff.

Unless Amazon is making an Invincible series I'm not sure what big IP Kirkman has left to sell.

I know Seth Rogen is developing an Invincible series but I'm not sure who it's for or if it's impacted by this deal. Reading the press release it sounds like he's going to be developing new IPs.

I don't think it would be possible to make a licensing deal with Image as all the creators own the rights to their own stuff, you'd have to have literally every artist and writer sign on.

My three favorite things he's ever done were Tech Jacket, The Astounding Wolf-Man, and Super Dinosaur. But the last two seem way out of the scope of something Amazon could produce. And maybe the first one too.

All three of those would make excellent animated series.

I think Super Dinosaur is super underrated and the reason it works is because it's made for a younger audience and that automatically leaves most of the stuff Kirkman overindulges in out. Which makes for a better comic.


EDIT: Oh! Thief of Thieves! That's the show that will absolutely work on Amazon. I forget that's a Kirkman book because he left so early. But it's perfect for Amazon.

If that's not the first show they do I will be very surprised.

There's only been like 3 rapes and a dozen or so dismemberments.

You do that in one season, then you've got yourself a Kirkman show.

Or you know, he's just in her head and she's having hallucinations about the trauma she went through. That seems much more likely.
