We first heard about DINOSAURS VS. ALIENS back in May of last year; initially announced as both a graphic novel and movie project, the pitch came from MEN IN BLACK director Barry Sonnenfeld and comic book writer Grant Morrison. We haven’t learned of much progress on the film, but today sees the launch of the “motion comic” version on Yahoo.
From the site: Created by Barry Sonnenfeld and written by comic book superstar Grant Morrison, “Dinosaurs Vs. Aliens” is a motion comic version of Liquid’s upcoming graphic novel based on a secret world war battle that was never recorded in our history books. When an alien invasion attacks Earth in the age of the dinosaurs, our planet’s only saviors are the savage prehistoric beasts which are much more intelligent than humanity has ever imagined.
