'LMS' Sells To Paramount For Film And More

Paramount has just closed a deal to purchase the "Last Man Standing" and develop it as a multiplatform franchise property.


The hugely sought-after graphic novel from Heavy Metal publishing was the sensation of this past Comic-Con when it debuted. Marc Evans, President of Production for Paramount, played a major role in bringing this into the studio.

Scott Aversano will produce with Daniel LuVisi, the artist and creator of the graphic novel. The graphic novel which was 2 years in the making and sold out within 2 hours will be expanded into a comic book series for Kevin Eastman’s Heavy Metal publishing.
