MGM has picked up the film rights to Steve NilesÂ’ and Ben Teplesmith’s comic book miniseries Criminal Macabre through Dark Horse Entertainment!
The Criminal Macabre: A Cal Mcdonald Mystery tpb features the writing talents of Steve Niles and art by Ben Templesmith. It arrives in stores April 28, with a retail price of $17.95.
