CAA's newest client? Will Eisner's estate!

The estate of comicbook creator/master Will Eisner has been taken on as a client by Creative Artists Agency. 

This will allow CAA to package Eisner's library of titles as movies, TV shows and other media properties, Variety reveals. 

Hollywood has caught on to Eisner's genius, thanks in no small part to writer/director Frank Miller adapting Eisner's most famous creation, The Spirit, as a stylish action flick.

Possible adaptations from Eisner's body of work from a career spanning 70 years include A Contract With God, John Law, Lady Luck, Mr. Mystic, Uncle Sam, Blackhawk, and Sheena.

It's awesome to see Eisner's work getting wider exposure and recognition.  He was and is one of the greats.
