Minds Eye Entertainment has picked up the rights to the Canadian comic book Superhero Captain Canuck from writer/creator Richard Comely, as announced today by Kevin DeWalt, CEO and President of Minds Eye. Working closely with Comely, Minds Eye is currently in development on a film adaptation based on the comic book series.
The first issue of Captain Canuck hit newsstands in May 1975. Thirty-six years later, the superhero franchise has garnered fans around the world. To date, more than 2 million copies have been sold and 26 different editions have been printed. IDW Publishing recently published two hard cover collections of the original issues that have since sold out.
if the superman issue never happen that would of been our canadian superhero but its americas superhero but anyways doesnt matter to me now not like i can go back in time and batbitchslap them for doing that
anywhos i dont think i ever heard of him anywhere since im canadian its usually stuff from america after all it is (whats the saying) land of opportunity?
i wonder what powers this guy has
Here's a breakdown of Who Captain Canuck is. He's a secret operative with CSIS apparently.
=P
I've never heard of him....let alone ive not once seen it in my comic store anywhere...also two million copies total? That isn't a lot...
I've heard of Captain Britain or whatever and so on.
Looked it up its an indie comic, so at least thats the good side of it. i always support indie comics. Other than that the description is "cross between Captain America (surprise?) and Flash" so hmmm....
Yeah, I remember when I first saw Captain Canuck I thought he was a redesigned Guardian from Alpha Flight. It wasn't until I actually bought a few copies of the old 1975 series that I realized he was someone totally different.
You should really check out the IDW graphic novel collections, they are quite interesting. Hm, I wouldn't mind seeing this movie if it gets made.
Sounds interesting...I'm always ready for something new and different.
