BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK Get a Crossover Comic
Have you ever wanted to see Kurt Russell’s Snake Plissken from Escape from New York team up with Kurt Russell’s Jack Burton from Big Trouble in Little China in an adventure? Well, thanks to Boom! Studios, that's actually happening!
The comic book publisher is developing a six-part comic book crossover, and it has the full approval of John Carpenter, who directed both films. The comic comes from writer Greg Pak and artist Daniel Bayliss and the image above is our first look at the art in the series.
According to EW, the basic plot of the film follows Jack Burton time traveling from 1986 to dystopian future of 1997 where he will meet Snake Plissken. I never thought I’d see the day were two classic Kurt Russell movie characters meet, but thanks to the imaginations of fans in the comic book industry, it’s happening!
I’m excited to see how this actually turns out and what they do with these characters. The concept is so crazy it makes me wish that Deadpool could be thrown into the mix. The question remains… with they be friends or foes? Whatever the cast is, I imagine they’ll eventually have to team up to fight some big bad villain who could be Duke, Lo Pan, or both?
So many questions! But every one of the possibilities is awesome! I can’t wait to check this out!
