D.J. Caruso is reaping the rewards of his current box-office luck after Disturbia did far better than it really should have, or would have had it faced better competition. However, I am not here to hate on the guy, but to tell you that he has signed on to direct a new comic adaptation in Y: The Last Man to be penned by his Disturbia scripter Carl Ellsworth.
The comic was created by Pia Guerra and Brian K. Vaughn and published by Vertigo and centers on a mysterious plague killing nearly all the world’s male mammals overnight. A magician who’s the only survivor among this group and his male pet monkey set out to find what may have wiped out the male chromosomes.
I am yet to be interested in anything Caruso has done, but I have also not caught The Salton Sea, which I have heard good things about. This story sounds interesting enough and I hope he finally hits me with something I like.
Any of you out there read this one?
