John Carpenter's classic Big Trouble in Little China is getting the comic book treatment from Boom Studios!
Will Jack Burton and the Pork Chop Express finally come to comics? It sure looks that way! In a teaser image released on Twitter today, BOOM! Studios revealed plans for what appears to be a comic based on Big Trouble in Little China! And...is that Eric Powell's signature we see in the corner? Yes it is!
John Carpenter's classic martial arts/comedy never got a sequel, but certainly found a huge cult following in the years after its 1986 release. If Eric Powell is at the wheel for a continuation of Jack Burton's adventures, there's a good chance that Boom's Big Trouble in Little China can rise above the usual licensed comic fare. There are no other details available yet, but you'd better believe we'll be on this like white on rice.
And really, if you haven't seen this movie, handily Kurt Russell's finest hour, do yourself a favor and watch it. Today.
