I'm in. I have read only The Yiddish Policemen’s Union from Chabon and I like his writing so I'm curious about this.

 

[SPIDER-MAN-ROX]

Is this in any way related to Spider-Man?

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

What? No, sorry.

 

[Crockett]

Sounds cool, and it'd be nice if HBO has more tv shows that lean towards the fantasy direction. I'm keeping out for more update from this pontential show.

**** yeah! And it's interesting because it will be Aronofsky's first time directing for a television series.

 

[Casius--J]

I'll be checking this out, subscribing

 

[Crockett]

The premise, Chabon and now Aronofsky, it's a damn good start for a pilot already.

 

[Hunter Rider]

The premise is great and Aronofsky coming on board to direct speaks well of the script.

 

[Prison Mike]

I was hoping this would be Spider-Man related.
