Benderspink, the production company that only sounds like a bad German porn film, has just picked up the rights to another comic adaptation (you?ll recall we reported here on their upcoming take on The Killer). This time around, they?ve set their steely eyes on the comic book Starkweather. The story follows a twentysomething slacker who, due to a bout of amnesia, is unaware of his magical abilities. When supernatural forces attack (as they always do) he?ll have to remember how to use his gifts. Sounds mind-blowing, doesn?t it? I mean maybe we, like, all have magic abilities and are under amnesia spells. I?m going to spend my entire weekend investigating this.
