I'm not familiar with this director, but the fact that this is getting made makes me giddy. I loved this series so much.

Extremely excited to hear that this is still moving forward, but extremely disappointed that people didn't buy the damn comic series in numbers that made it worthwhile for AJ and Riley to continue making it.

This premise and characters had so much potential - and I'm sure it will translate well to the big screen given the proper script.

I'm not familiar with the comic series Cowboy, Ninja, Viking but if this movie is going to be anything like Cowboys and Aliens you can rest ASSURED I'm going to steer clear of this movie.

Well, the story is not even remotely similar, so my guess would be that it won't be anything like Cowboys and Aliens.
