NEWS: Update on Tales Of The Black Freighter/Under the Hood...

Warner Brothers has just released details on their hotly anticipated animated adaptation of the comic-within-a-comic from Watchmen, called Tales Of The Black Freighter. The DVD/Blu-Ray will also come with another film, an adaptation of another book-within-the-comic, Under The Hood, an expose on the masked adventurers, known as The Minute Men. Check out the cover, along with a fact sheet and some screenshots below!





Here's a synopsis from the studio...

“Theyre in the book. And on this disc. From the director of Watchmen and 300 come two tales from the celebrated graphic novel that do not appear in the extraordinary Watchmen Theatrical Feature. Tales of the Black Freighter (featuring the voice of 300s Gerard Butler) brings to strikingly animated life the novels richly layered story-within-a-story, a daring pirate saga whose turbulent events may mirror those in the Watchmens world. Stars from the Watchmen movie team in the amazing live-action/CGI Under the Hood, based on Nite Owls powerful first-hand account of how the hooded adventurers came into existence. Two fan-essential stories. One place to watch the excitement. Watching the Watchmen begins here.”
