The graphic novel adaptation was produced as a bandes dessinees, co-written by Ari Handel, with art by Niko Henrichon (Pride of Baghdad) and released in Europe in 2012. Image announced the English adaptation last July at Image Expo (see "Image Announces Major Projects at Expo"), to be released in conjunction with the movie.
The movie, starring Russell Crowe, Jennifer Connelly, Emma Watson, and Anthony Hopkins, opens in theaters March 8th. The graphic novel will arrive in stores on March 18 with an MSRP of $29.99.
