This needs to happen yesterday.

You are not wrong.

first david fincher and del toro on heavy metal now this...i swear the world does revolve around my imagination.

YES!!! That would be amazing!! If DC does not do it then the dont know what they ar doing.

I'd read it.

I am a DC comics man, my favorite movie is Fight Club and I am currently reading/loving Choke. So yeah, this would be amazing.

I know I'm in the minority but i f'ing love HAUNTED and I think that would make an incredible mini-series... just thinking about how they would show GUTS.... mmmmm

This should have happened THE DAY BEFORE yesterday.

What Palahniuk would do with a comic would inevitabely result in Epic Awesomeness.

man Stephen King is doing it with Marvel, why the hell not.

MonkeyMafia .. I LOVE HAUNTED TOO!! and yeah it would make an awesome mini series!

This must happen!

Can't wait for it to be collected in a graphic novel. I'm there.

Perfect.

Has DC been reading my diary? This is beyond awesome.

If you're wrong, I don't want to be right

This will be great to see.

First Garth Ennis and now this :)

Comics aren't totally new to Chuck fans that have frequented his official (the writer's cult) site. I'm curious if Chuck would try to, in some fashion, employ the artist that has spent many years gracing us with comic translations of some of his novels (Lullaby and Invisible Monsters).

It's always interesting seeing artists jump all around available mediums ... whether to see failures or successes.

Good book authors don't always make good comic authors. Writing a comic book is in some ways, a lot more like writing a series of short screenplays.Some authors have made the transition from books to comics well (Orson Scott Card with Ultimate Iron Man comes to mind)
And it should be noted that the Dark Tower comics are written by Peter David and Robin Furth, a well known comic writer and Stephen King's Dark Tower research assistant.
Would Chuck make a great comic writer just because he is a great book writer? Definitely not. Would I read it to find out? You bet.

Haunted sort of reads like comic book anyway. Or maybe it's my imagination...

That would be awesome!! He's just about my favorite author, ive read every single one of his books and Fight Club is one of my all time favorite movies. plus im a pretty big fan of DC comics. i really hope this falls through.

Ditto ditto ditto. While writing books is different than writing comics, he seems like the kind of guy who, once he committed, would want to do it right.

it's one of those ideas that is so obvious it makes ya think, 'no shit, why the hell didn't i think of this before?'

vertigo, top cop, icon, dynamite - the label would depend on what type of story he ended up writing. right now marvel is doing a really good job with the 'dark tower' series, it even has a 'literature' feel to it, so i'd throw marvel's hat in the ring.

My mind just blew into a thousand pink, squishy pieces.

Why must you all represent the lowest common denominator?

@ micheal

i'm curious, how are we representing the lowest common denominator?

Considering the amount of inner monolouging in his books, I expect all the panels to be covered with thought balloons.

Chuck's boring. His early shit was cool, but I'd care about this even less than a guy Ritchie comic book. Or movie.

I ... i think in need to change my pants.

btw. it's Chuck Palahniuk not Chuck Palahnuik.

I was one of your lurkers, so I thought this would be a good post to comment on first. :) Thanks for the list!
