Marvel Comics has signed a deal to turn one of its superheroes, the Black Panther, into a primetime animated series for BET, starting early next year.
Variety says BET made the announcement at its upfront presentation in New York as the highlight of a batch of new series being readied for the 2008-09 season, under the supervision of Reginald Hudlin, president of entertainment for BET.
Considering Reginald Hudlin is currently writing Black Panther...this is only mildly surprising. But...VERY interesting. I'm very much wanting to see this.
