As an avid Steve Niles fan, and a Criminal Macabre fan to boot, this news excites me greatly. I actually went on a comic purchasing hiatus for quite some time, before Steve Niles was big on the scene, and it was his comics which single-handedly got me back into ‘em.

A movie version Criminal Macabre is in the works, which is a spooky mystery series centered around a man named Cal Macdonald, who is essentially a detective who deals with spirits/ghosts/monsters, but in a cool CSI way which isn’t corny at all.

Here’s to hoping Keanu Reeves doesn’t get the part.
