In the 1980's. Brad Bird wanted to do an animated feature of Will Eisner's The Spirit. Being a fan of the comics, Brad wrote a script that was very faithful to the comic's source material. Will Eisner loved it and claimed it to be 'very faithful' to his creation. However. The project didn't get made since the executives couldn't envision it working out as an animated feature. The project was later scrapped and the idea of a film based off of Will Eisner's comic wouldn't hit the screen until Frank Miller stepped in and did a movie of the comic in 2008.

Doug Tennapel's favorite graphic novel series is Hellboy.
