While it’s ultimately a footnote in an interview exploring Mignola’s excitement over the Hellboy II DVD, what’s coming up for him comic wise, and he and his daughter’s conflicting opinions of Twilight, Mignola does make special mention of his forthcoming film project with David Goyer (Batman Begins, Blade III).

The catch? It’s an old school vampire flick. Here’s what Mikey had to say.

I prefer an old-school vampire. I co-wrote an old-shcool vampire novel with Christopher Golden [called Baltimore, or The Steadfast Tin Soldier and the Vampire], and we've been struggling with a screen adaptation of it. We're trying to make an old school vampire movie. But the problem is that if nobody's made one in the last five years — nobody wants to make one.
