By coincidence I just finished reading the Michael Chabon novel Kavalier & Clay, an amazing novel chronicling the lives of two early comic book creators: writer Sam Clay and artist Josef Kavalier. (Quickie Review: The first half of the novel is sensational, the second half almost as good).

Pulse reports that Dark Horse will begin publishing the Adventures of the Escapist with author Michael Chabon writing some of the stories.

In addition, Michael Chabon will pen the script for the movie adaptation of his novel "The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay" for Paramount Pictures.
