Brett (I couldn?t pull off X:3) Ratner has just signed a deal with Paramount pictures to adapt the Valiant Comics series Harbinger. The series, created by Jim Shooter, follows the exploits of a young boy with Harbinger, or psionic, powers who uses his abilities to wake up the latent powers in other teens. Variety claims that apparently Ratner has been looking for a comic franchise to start on his own, so it will be interesting to see how (if) he pulls it off.
