You cats heard of the band Life Of Agony? If so, chances are you’ve heard of the group’s bassist, Alan Robert. Well, this Robert fella’s got a horror/crime graphic novel that’s getting the big-screen treatment. Wanna hear more?

WIRE HANGERS, Robert’s gory abduction tales published by IDW (30 Days of Night, Locke & Key, Zombies Vs. Robots) is moving forward under the aegis of Robert’s newly formed production company, Wasted Talent Entertainment. Writers and directors are currently being sought after to bring the live-action film to fruition, though no names have been given at this time.

In WIRE HANGERS, a series of abductions plagues New York City and no one is safe. When Anna Davis, a feisty young reporter, goes undercover to try and snag the big exclusive, she stumbles upon clues that give us a glimpse into what could be the most disturbing government conspiracy of our time. Pill-popping detectives, corrupt secret agents and a mysterious, disfigured homeless man are all inter-connected in this horrific tale of revenge and redemption.

About the development, Robert states:

“I really can’t express how excited I am to finally see this idea come to life. I’ve been a huge comic book fan since I was just a kid and I went to art college in the hopes of becoming a penciler one day. During my graduation year, my band LOA landed a record contract with Roadrunner Records to record our debut album, River Runs Red. Once it came out, I found myself touring full-time and focusing on my music career. So, for me, all these years later – to finally create my own original comic series is a dream come true and releasing it through IDW is icing on the cake. IDW has published some of my favorite comics, like 30 Days of Night and Welcome to Hoxford. It’s a real honor to have Wire Hangers appear alongside those titles.”

Sounds pretty cool, no? Hopefully Robert’s writing is good enough to score some top flight talent to aptly make WIRE HANGERS into a movie.

Stay tuned…
