Hard Boiled

Product Information

She claims Carl is the revolution's only hope, being the only robot powerful enough to stand up to Willeford's paramilitary security forces. UPDATE: Deadline hears that while all the deals have to be made on Hard Boiled, Warner Bros is looking for Ben Wheatley to develop the action film as a potential vehicle for The Avengers and The Night Manager star Tom Hiddleston.

For this re-release, Eisner-winning colorist Dave Stewart was hired to create a completely new color palette, putting an emphasis on more neutral, realistic hues, a decision which generated some controversy. Downer Ending: Nixon is ultimately defeated, rebuilt as Carl once more, and ends up right back where he started.For most comic book artists, an output of just three oversized issues within a span of three years would seem unproductive, to say the least. This leaves Darrow to fill the gaps with his stunning artwork, filled with minute detail that'll have you poring over each frame, watching the individual pieces fly off crashing cars and disintegrating robots.

However, I do think Miller was on stronger ground there and had a more cohesive narrative, with an actually developed character. I was attracted to reviewing Hard Boiled because Miller is the kind of creator who is always interesting, even when at his worst. Couldn’t confirm Hard Boiled with Warner Bros, and there has been prior talk of adaptations, but I hear this is going to make.This story by Miller bears some resemblance to Dick's story, with, let's say, less philosophical reflection and, ala Crossed, more carnage and depravity for depravity's sake. The entry point to each issue (the covers) where unusually white and minimalistic, offering a sense of design and vision to the whole. In comics it’s often made humorously, but Miller and Darrow go the opposite route and say, “You want violence? In retrospect, it was a good decision on my part to go from “Ghost in the Shell” and the future worlds of Moebius to this three issue series by Frank Miller and Geof Darrow.
