    In an Alternate Universe, Inglouirous Basterds is Already a Comic

    Quentin Tarantino's violent alternate history of World War II isn't a comic yet, but these Jack Kirby-inspired comic book covers are begging to be made into a full series. Perhaps someday we'll see Tarantino's Nazi-killing violence in four colors. More »
