WANTED - The Comic Behind the Movie

Saturday, June 28th, 2008 – running time 20:59

WANTED, starring Angelina Jolie and Morgan Freeman, opened in theaters this past weekend and we dive into the source material, a comic book miniseries by Mark Millar and J.G. Jones.

Originally published in 2003 by Image Comics, WANTED was written by Mark Millar with art by J.G. Jones. The story follows Wesley, a no body, as he becomes one of the world's deadliest super villains. WANTED is a polarizing comic book that some people absolutely love and others hate vehemently. For example, Josh hates it, while Conor and Ron really enjoy it.

The movie WANTED was released on June 27th, 2008 and while it strays from the original story, many familiar scenes and elements make their way into the movie.
