On The Electric Ant Comics Adaptation

How did I miss this?

Marvel Comics will be adapting Philip K. Dick’s fiction to comics, beginning with The Electric Ant.

“As the first original adaptation of our father’s work into this genre, we are thrilled with the creative team and the support of Marvel in the care they have taken to be true to the integrity of this story,” said Laura Leslie, Dick’s daughter and a partner with her sister, Isa Dick Hackett, in Electric Shepherd Productions.

I’m so there.

Hopefully, it does well, and there will be a steady stream of adaptations for years to come. 🙂
