From our good friends and ComicMix alumni over at the Flickcast, we find a trailer for the new Human Target series coming soon to Fox, starring Mark Valley as Christopher Chance, with Tricia Helfer, Jackie Earle Haley and Chi McBride.

Looks like fun– although I hope they use the rubber masks once in a while.

‘Human Target’ picked up by Fox

It’s official: Fox has picked up Human Target, the DC Comics series created by Len Wein, Carmine Infantino, and Dick Giordano, as a new drama series this fall. The show was apparently the best-received pilot at the network’s
screenings last week.

The show centers on Christopher
Chance (Mark Valley from Keen Eddie, Boston Legal, and Fringe) as a bodyguard with a unique
form of security: he assumes the identities of people in
danger, becoming the “human target” on behalf of his clients.

Jackie Earle Haley (Watchmen, Nightmare on Elm Street) and Chi McBride (Pushing Daisies, House, Boston Public) will co-star in the project written
by Jon Steinberg and directed by Simon West (Con Air, Lara Croft: Tomb Raider). The two exec produced
the pilot with McG (Terminator: Salvation).

This continues a long streak of Len Wein’s comics work being adapted for the screen: off the top of my head, we have Swamp Thing, Wolverine, Storm, Colossus, and Lucius Fox. Even Human Target has been adapted before, in a 1992 series on ABC starring Rick Springfield.

The weekend’s list of quick items:

WATCHMEN WEEK: Where Were You in 1986? Part 1 | Comix 411
Golden Age Comic Book Stories: Wally Wood does an EC story, and Frank Frazetta makes notes on redrawing it himself. Take a look and watch how the masters did it.
Amazon Kindle is now also an iPhone App. But it still can’t do images yet. When it does, the comics industry changes forever.
And while we’re on the topic, Barnes & Noble is back in the eBook Market with the acquisition of Fictionwise. Here’s hoping it works better than what they did with MightyWords… or am I the only person who remembers them? God, I’m old…
Leonardo DiCaprio teams with ‘Dark Knight’ director Christopher Nolan for the sci-fi action film Inception, his next directing gig instead of doing the next Batfilm right away. Also, ‘Watchmen’ star Jackie Earle Haley stays with comic books, joins ‘Human Target’ cast.

Anything else? Consider this an open thread.
