Steve discusses comics VS Hollywood on DC’s “Crossing Over” panel

July 31st, 2007 by Administrator

One of the panels Steve participated in at Comic Con was a DC hosted event featuring writers who work in more than just the comic book medium. Steve was on the panel, along with Greg Rucka, Mark Verheiden, Paul Dini and more. The panelists were all open and honest about their experiences, and Steve was no different.

Rucka said, “I’ve seen a lot of people say, ‘I’m coming up with this so I can sell it as a movie.’ Often, they don’t. Screen writers are looking at comics as a way to get their creator owned movie made.”

“That’s what I did,” Niles said. “I had a screen play sitting in my drawer that I wanted to see come to life.”
