In the 2008-2009 comic book series "Incognito," Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips brought readers the story of Zack Overkill, a former supervillain living in witness protection after he testified against one of the world's most dangerous "science villains."
Told in the same gritty, noir-influenced style as the pair's popular 2003-2004 series "Sleeper" (about a superhero who goes undercover in the super-powered underworld), "Incognito" was picked up for adaptation in April by 20th Century Fox, with Robert Schenkkan ("The Quiet American," HBO's "The Pacific") writing the live-action feature's screenplay. The series will also get a comic book sequel, titled "Incognito: Bad Influences," which kicks off this week.
With the first issue of "Bad Influences" arriving on shelves Wednesday, Brubaker offered up some new details about Zack Overkill's return to action in the comics world, as well as the status of the "Incognito" and "Sleeper" movies. Splash Page readers also get the first peek at some new pages from "Bad Influences," courtesy of Marvel Comics. Read More...
