The Ultimate Gladiator: Remender talks “Gigantic”

[andy khouri]

Writer Rick Remender is re-teaming with “Strange Girl” co-creator Eric Nguyen for Dark Horse’s “Gigantic,” a twist on “The Truman Show” with a dash of giant robots, giant monsters, and ‘50s sci-fi kitsch. Remender gives us all the details.

Holy!~ I want this. The bad mecha looks bad ass. The mass destruction % makes the super robot comic. <3

not to be a prick or anything, and let me begin by saying i liked the book - the entire premice of "Gigantic" is plagerized off an episode of South Park.


the episode was in Season 7 and it's called "Cancelled." it involved the 4 boys finding out that earth is an intergalactic reality show that is about to be cancelled. i dont know if Remender knew about this, but yeah...


Anyway, here's the full episode of the TV show, judge for yourself.
