Drawn by &#8220;Scalped&#8221; artist R.M. Guera, the miniseries is adapted from Tarantino&#8217;s original screenplay by none other than Reggie Hudlin, writer, director and producer of the film version of &#8220;Django.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>A name familiar to many in the comic book world, Hudlin is best known among readers for his turn as the writer on Marvel Comics&#8217; &#8220;Black Panther,&#8221; where his contributions included the marriage of Storm and T&#8217;Challa. Hudlin is also a seasoned Hollywood director and producer who launched his career in the &#8217;90s with movies such as the critically acclaimed &#8220;House Party&#8221; and the Eddie Murphy film &#8220;Boomerang&#8221; before becoming the President of Entertainment for BET from 2005 to 2008. A friend of Tarantino for years, Hudlin turned his considerable talents back to the world of comics for the adaptation, translating Tarantino&#8217;s script into the visual medium and restoring many scenes that were cut from the movie.<\/p>\n<p>With the second issue of &#8220;Django&#8221; due out in February, Hudlin spoke with CBR about the adaptation process as well as the debate about depictions of slavery the film has engendered and what impact he thinks the comic and film will have on Hollywood, comic books and audiences worldwide.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>TO READ CBR&#8217;S INTERVIEW PLEASE CLICK THE LINK BELOW.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>via <a href=\"http:\/\/www.comicbookresources.com\/?page=article&amp;id=43080\">Reggie Hudlin Adapts Tarantino&#8217;s &#8220;Django Unchained&#8221; For Vertigo &#8211; Comic Book Resources<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last December, Vertigo Comics delighted Quentin Tarantino fans as the publisher released the first issue of &#8220;Django Unchained,&#8221; the comic book adaptation of the filmmaker&#8217;s 2012 slave revenge flick.
