<\/a><\/a><\/a><\/a>\"\"<\/a>[ENGLISH] Dabel Brothers tells us:<\/strong> Atlanta, GA \u2013 July 8, 2008 – Dabel Brothers Publishing is excited to announce the manga-style adaptation of Malcolm Wong’s award-winning screenplay, Dog Eaters. Malcolm’s screenplay won three awards at the Screenwriting Expo5 in Los Angeles. The story has been adapted by Sean J. Jordan, and features stunning manga-style pencils from Chilean illustrator, Guillermo A. Angel. Dog Eaters tells the tale of a world 175 years after\u00a0the \u00ab\u00a0Die Off\u00a0\u00bb \u2013\u00a0a catastrophe that occurs when the balance of world economic, political, and ecological systems is upset by an oil crisis that spins out of control, eventually wiping out 90% of the world’s population.\u00a0 The survivors in the U.S. Southwest travel between casino-cities in armored caravans made up of old semi-trucks and motorcycles, on the lookout for bands of \u00ab\u00a0Roaches\u00a0\u00bb \u2013 fierce desert bandits descended from the inmates of maximum security penitentiaries. As the title declares, the nomads of this world aren’t afraid to eat wild dog when necessary; survival in this dangerous world has meant sacrificing a few of our civilized niceties. And that is one of many tough decisions the main characters of the story, known as the \u00ab\u00a0Black Dog Clan,\u00a0\u00bb are forced to make to keep their clan alive.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00ab\u00a0I wrote this story as a way to express my dismay and fear that mankind’s current addiction to materialism will topple contemporary civilization,\u00a0\u00bb explained Malcolm Wong. \u00ab\u00a0Oil is required for everything we do — everything that we take for granted. So imagine what would happen if we failed to transcend the Petroleum Age.\u00a0 The worst-case scenario: a second Dark Age and return to barbarism.\u00a0 But that’s just the back story for Dog Eaters, which portrays a family of the Black Dog Clan in this new future.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Dabel Brothers first picked up the rights to this story as part of a prize package at the Screenwriting Expo 5 in Los Angeles.\u00a0 The Dabels agreed to adapt the winning screenplay into a 6-issue comic book miniseries and an accompanying graphic novel collection.<\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0Dog Eaters was a big surprise for us,\u00a0\u00bb said Ernst Dabel, President of Dabel Brothers Publishing. \u00ab\u00a0I read the title, and I said to myself, ‘I want to read more. I want to know why it’s called Dog Eaters.’ And as this production has progressed, I was really impressed with the wonderful job Guillermo Angel is doing of bringing this story to life.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0There will be a preview edition later this summer, available at the San Diego Comic-con and Malcolm Wong will be there to help spread the word.\u00a0 We’ll be making many more announcements about this book as the release date nears,\u00a0\u00bb said Les Dabel, Vice President of Dabel Brothers Publishing. \u00ab\u00a0We think it’s going to fit in just fine with our licensed material, and we’re certain people are going to be just as blown away by this story as we are.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n

The series will debut in Fall 2008 as a 6 issue miniseries, with a preview coming this summer at San Diego Comic-con. For more information about Dog Eaters please visit http:\/\/www.dogeaters-manga.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n
