FINCHER'S TORSO

Sweet! DAVID FINCHER (ALIEN3, Se7en, Fight Club) is going to direct the Bendis/Andreyko comic TORSO. TORSO is the true tale of the post-Untouchables Eliot Ness, who moved to Cleveland after seeing Al Capone brought to justice in Chicago. In Cleveland, as the city’s public safety officer, Ness’ biggest – and unsolved – case centered on the “Torso Killer,” a serial killer who, after killing his victims, cut off their head, arms, and legs. As the torsos began to appear in the waters around Cleveland, Ness began to receive mail from the killer, taunting him. Despite investigating with a team of ex-police officers, Ness never apprehended the killer.
