Bullets over Borderline


According to a press release from Dynamic Forces which can be found at Newsarama states that Edwardo Risso, artist on Vertigo's 100 Bullets has signed a deal with the company to cover all aspects of his upcoming project Borderline, written by Carlos Trillo. Confused? Me too, here's what they said:

The deal is the first in a series of licensing agreements forthcoming from the company, concerning individual creators and their properties.

The deal allows for Dynamic Forces to handle a variety of worldwide licensing and merchandising including all media rights, from film, TV, internet to video game rights for the property. Negotiations with partners are now commencing for all available categories.

Okay, makes sense, so what's the project about?

Borderline has been described by Harvey and Eisner Award winning creator Risso as a sci-fi post apocalyptic story that openly shows the miseries and kindness of Humankind. “This work is very strong and very personal”, Risso explained.

Interesting. I like Risso's work for the most part. No one draws terrible, gut-wrenching situations quite like him, but I wonder how it will like in a post-apocolyptical setting. My guess? Better than Batman but not quite as good as 100 Bullets.
