Last year, I mentioned that Doug TenNapel — animator, comic-book artist, video-game creator and occasional collaborator with one of my favorite musicians of all time, Terry Scott Taylor — had sold the film rights to his graphic novel Creature Tech to Regency Enterprises and 20th Century Fox a few years earlier. Now, Variety reports that Paramount Pictures and Sam Raimi’s Buckaroo Entertainment have acquired the film rights to his next graphic novel, Monster Zoo, which is about “a young boy who discovers his local zoo contains critters much more frightening than the ordinary collection.” The book comes out April 25.
