I'd certainly be interested in such a movie. Especially with Del Toro on it.

Farewell is like the end
But in my heart's the memory
And there you'll always be

Need a little help here, don't recognize most of the characters in these pictures. Other than Deadman, Constantine in the first (is that suppose to be Jason Blood with the white streak in his hair?) and Swamp Thing in the second.

This really looks like a good fit for Del Toro. I'm not even all that familiar with these comics, but the designs and themes just seem to be a great fit.

In the first pic, one of the characters (take a guess which one) appears to be DC's Frankenstein.

I think the girl with the sword (on the left) might be Amethyst and could the kid in the middle be Timothy Hunter?|

All in all I'm very curious to know where that picture is from, looks like an interesting read.

Left to right...
Madame Xanadu
Amethyst
Andrew Bennett (aka I... Vampire!)
Frankenstein
Timothy Hunter
John Constantine
Deadman
Black Orchid
Anyway, Del Toro + Swamp Thing would be the most exciting comic book movie I could dream of. Hopefully he follows through.

• Deadman
• The Spectre
• Swamp Thing
• Constantine Hellblazer
• Phantom Stranger
• Zatanna
• Zatara
• Sargon
• Etrigan the Demon
That's the list the site has and it seems to cover that area of the DC Universe very nicely (a shame that there's no mention of Animal Man though...). Warner's lawyers are currently hard at work on making sure they have the rights to bring each of these characters to the big screen, and while it's a project which is likely still a good few years away, but it's definitely not too early to start getting excited about this ambitious project!
