Ocean

I first picked up Warren Ellis' "Ocean" comic when it hit the shelves a few years back.

As with most of Ellis' stuff, I loved it. It was pure narrative genius and it read like a great sci-fi thriller movie.

I missed the first trade paperback pass when it came out. So I was excited and thrilled when I found it's back. I got a copy yesterday and re-read it a few times to bask in the pure Ellis glory.

I've heard rumors that it's optioned for a movie.

Part of me hopes that's true, 'cause it would be fantastic and be an alternative to the ungodly number of craptacular remakes currently saturating the science fiction movie market.

Part of me hopes it's not true, 'cause Hollywood will screw it up.
