Avatar Counts 2001 Maniacs!

Tim Sullivan's 2001 Maniacs has always been one of my favorite films since its release. That said, Avatar Press have just announced that they will be bringing the 2001 Maniacs to the comic book page in July. Now when something like this happens usually we have to worry that it might not fit the directors vision.

Well not this time folks. Tim Sullivan will actually be writing the comic! He is going to make it all fit in with the stories of the original, the second and upcoming third film. Along with Sullivan, Raulo Caceres will be adding his artistic touch to Mayor Buckmans eye patch.

The entire crew at Avatar and with the 2001 Maniacs will be on hand at this years San Diego Comic Con to pimp out the comic. So if you are heading out that way this summer be sure to check it out. Dread Central was lucky enough to get their hands on the multiple covers that will be available for the first issue. Click on the one below to view the rest.
