David Goyer to Develop 100 BULLETS Comic Adaptation for Showtime

Showtime has hired screenwriter David Goyer to take on a new series for the cable network called 100 Bullets, which is based on the Eisner and Harvey Award-winning comic book written by Brian Azzarello and illustrated by Eduardo Risso. Goyer is a great choice to bring this story to life. They guy has already done a great job adaption several comic book films such as Nolan's Batman films, the upcoming Superman Man of Steel film, and all three Blade movies. This should make for a great series on Showtime. 

The story is a dark, noir-style story about the attempt by a mysterious man named Agent Graves, who is out to destroy a secret group of families that control most of the world's wealth and power. "The book's starting-off point is Graves giving ordinary people who have been wronged a pistol and a briefcase with 100 untraceable bullets, offering them to exact justice for themselves with no danger of being caught. The self-contained storylines eventually blend into a sprawling crime saga where everything -- and everyone -- is connected as Graves takes on a multinational clandestine organization named The Trust. Among 100 Bullets' distinguishing traits is Azzarello's realistic use of regional dialects and accents, as well as the frequent use of slang."

The comic asks the question... "What would you do if you were given the opportunity and the means to get away with murder, scot-free?"

I'm not really murdering type, so I would have to pass. What are your thoughts on Goyer toaking on this series adaptation?
