Forget Marvel And DC These Are The Next Comics That Should Be Movies
Another horror series, Hack/Slash, takes the horror trope of the “Final Girl” and turns it around, with former victim Cassie Hack hunting down the “Slashers,” either undead killers filled with hatred or psychotic humans; either way, they all bleed the same. Joining her is the mysterious Vlad, a large, musclebound man raised by a kindly butcher. Joining forces, the pair goes to battle with original Slashers and cross-over stars, including Chucky.
Released as a series of one-shots and limited series, with the exception being the 25-issue multi-year run, just one arc of the series could make a great comic book horror movie. My First Maniac, a four-issue limited run, would be a great base, perhaps incorporating the partnership between Cassie and Vlad to flesh it out. Either way, if a movie ever happens, brace yourself for Halloween to be filled with Cassie and Vlad costumes.
