Another comicbook adaptation is coming to Netflix.

Another comicbook adaptation is coming to Netflix. This time it seems akin to Blade Runner wherein a "Blade Runner" hunts down rogue androids and in Failsafe a man in tasked with hunting down rogue cyborgs. But maybe there will be less rain. Who knows. https://io9.gizmodo.com/michael-b-jordans-next-comic-book-project-is-headed-to-1825656380
