Paramount has nabbed the rights for another graphic novel for the big screen. The new book is called Last Man Standing. It tells the story of Gabriel, a genetically engineered soldier who must protect the planet Amerika and its people. This already sounds like Soldier.
The novel will also expand into a comic by Heavy Metal. It follows the adventures of a genetically tinkered bounty hunter called Gabriel, developed by a weapons contractor as part of its Paladin Army, a group where each soldier has the talent of 500 soldiers.
He is suddenly framed and thrown in prison, but promptly escapes and begins to explore New Amerika, a strange land boasting ninjas, shark men and burlesque girls. This is going to be huge in the scale of action. It will surely stand out with the numbers on the screen.
