One of the more interesting projects being promoted last weekend at Wondercon, the Bay Area's kid-brother version to San Diego's massive Comic-Con, was Angel of Death—or, as it says on the title screen over the angry guitar soundtrack, Ed Brubaker's Angel of Death. Brubaker, a comics writer who's increasingly known for brilliantly layered crime stories, has written a feature film broken into ten short episodes, going up on Sony's Crackle.com, one a day starting today, to be followed by a DVD release with the whole package and the usual bonus features. Like what Joss Whedon did with Dr. Horrible's Sing-along Blog, only with less singing along and a ton more traumatic head injuries.
