The Pale Horsemen - Catch Up

For those of you unfamiliar with The Pale Horsemen; here's what Darkstorm has to say about it:

"Four years ago Sean Massen was a hit man... the best. Until he became the lone survivor of a mysterious hit that claimed the lives of 4 of his criminal friends. His near death experience set him on a path of redemption atoning for the sins he commited while on the wrong side of the law. However, given the path he is on... sometimes it's not always so clear.

You see, presently Massen is the leader of the "Pale Horsemen". An NSA sponsored black bag program that uses street-level hit men as government assassins. Under the careful tutelage of their handler, psychiatrist and former operative himself, Dr. Roman Gage, the Pale Horsemen take assignments that would make the espionage community blush."

This could shape up to be a fantastic move in the right hands!

The Pale Horsemen Film Rights Acquired!

NEHST Studios has acquired film rights to Sandrunner Entertainment’s supernatural thriller The Pale Horsemen, based upon Kevin Grevioux's upcoming graphic novel of the same name and the film is set to mark the feature directorial debut of Underworld creator and star Kevin Grevioux.

The Pale Horsemen focuses on a group of mysterious hitmen who are forced together in order to uncover the identity of the killer of their assassin mentor.

Grevioux previously co-wrote the original screenplay for the first Underworld film and has optioned two of his graphic novels – ZMD: Zombies Of Mass Destruction and I, Frankenstein – to Benderspink and Death Ray Films, respectively.

So, is this good news for comic book fans?
