Showtime has acquired rights to Oni Press’ The Damned and has hired David Hayter (Watchmen) to write, according to Hollywood Reporter.  The Damned is written by Cullen Bunn with art by Brian Hurtt.  It’s unclear how much programming this small screen project is targeting. 

The property had been in development as a feature a few years back (see “DiGilio Adapting Oni’s ‘The Damned’”).
