Gritty superhero noir story Sleeper by Ed Brubaker is being picked up as a movie. The book Sleeper, put out through Wildstorm is being helmed by Matt Damon and Ben Affleck. Damon and Affleck are producing the movie through the Pearl Street production company.
the news hit last night as a series of other DC imprint stories keep rolling out including the rumor of a potential Sandman movie.
Copies of the book can still be found cheap, here is Sleeper #1
Line Star comics has them cheap too Sleeper at mycomicshop.com Point Blank #3, First Appearance of Carver from Sleeper for .90 cents at mycomicshop.com
The full article from comicbook movie.com runs here.
I would also buy Point Blank 3 ( first Carver ) and WildC.A.T.S. 21 ( first Tao )
Yeah. I originally had Point Blank in there as I known Sleeper was a continuation. I left if off as I didn’t have the exact issue. Have to go through my boxes tonight.

i think its 3
I’m only really finding Season Two listed. The season ones are all TPB it appears. Guess I’m gonna have to go digging at the LCB then, I’ve been trying to pick up most of Brubaker’s previous works, I’m just finishing up Incognito and Incognito Bad Influences now.
What were you clicking in Amazon or eBay? I have some listings for both posted (not my listings but I linked to some that were in there.) I will post more links to cheap copies later.

eBay for now. I’m not too keen on purchasing from Amazon unless I can see the actual copy I’m gonna be buying. I’m super picky on grade, primarily I try to avoid any creases on the spine, that just annoys me. 🙂
Let’s just say, I don’t take others word for their own particular grading. What some say is NM+ is VF to NM- to me. I’m hard on my own grading… 😛
I just posted some other stuff on the article now. Check them out.
Let’s just day there were ones on eBay (single issues of the first series and sets) when I put the post up this morning.
