I’m not sure if they had a writer at the time, but I had plenty of time to re-read the book multiple times and really think about how a comic adaptation of the book could work. It was a really scary prospect – I think this is one of, if not the best crime books ever written – but it was the scariness that made me really want to tackle it. IDW had the rights to this book and they were looking for a writer, and Chris wanted to take a chance on me. ![]() So, folks, why was this a book that screamed “adaptation” to you?
