An interview with producer Michael Uslan about his upcoming silver screen adaptation of Will Eisner's The Spirit is now online.
Uslan explains what drew him to the character: "The Spirit is unique insofar as he is a 'real' guy in a 'real' city who is patently aware of the absurdity of his own situation--- trying to be a masked hero because he thinks this will make him more effective in his approach to fighting crime in his neighborhood and throughout the City. Instead, he finds being a masked hero gets him into predicaments with a rogues' gallery of beautiful villa nesses, never knowing from encounter to encounter if he's going to wind up dead or in bed, while in the process getting the crap beat out of him on a regular basis."
