Deadline reports that Wes Craven and Steve Niles are working on a new graphic novel entitled, Coming Of Rage. It was created by Craven (The Nightmare on Elm Street) and written by Niles (Wake The Dead). The site goes on to report that Live Free or Die Hard producer Arnold Rifkin and Liquid Comics CEO, Sharad Devarajan are working on a big screen adaptation which is expected to be helmed by Craven. There are currently no story details, although it is thought that it will be in the horror genre - something both are well-versed in. Coming Of Age goes on sale next year, both as a five-issue comic series and graphic novel.

I don't know it could be good. Steve Niles is a great writer and I would like to see Wes Craven make a good movie.

Off topic but I just found out the other day Steve Niles was in a D.C. area punk band in the 80's called Gray Matter. Made me like him just a little bit more.

Craven should make Freddy into a graphic novel villain. 30 Days of Night meets Sandman could be pretty sweet.

Wes was the reason Scream 4 sucked. He cut out all the good scenes and it ended as a disappointing film to what it could have been. I lost all faith in him.

John Carpenter should get involved with a CBM. Maybe even Lobo?
