According to a press release posted on PhilipKDick.com yesterday. One of PKD's coolest short stories, "The Electric Ant" is set to become a "limited series" (whatever that means) in 2009. According to the press release:"The creative team behind this existential thriller includes acclaimed writer David Mack (Daredevil, Kabuki) and artist Pascal Alixe (Ultimate X-Men, 1602: Fantastik Four), joined by Consulting Editor Brian Michael Bendis (award-winning author behind Secret Invasion) and renowned artist Paul Pope, who will provide covers to the series."
"The Electric Ant" is one of my favorite PKD shorts, and I think, with the right team, this could be a great series. I know Lethem's a big fan of comics, so let's hope he's helping steer. Certainly Dick appreciated comic books, how well do you think this medium will suit the story or PKD's work in general?
Update: Here's an article with tons more info.
