"Voodoo Child" by Nicolas Cage & Weston Cage

[khekshial]

Voodoo Child is an comic series published by Virgin Comics, and created by Nicolas Cage and his son Wes Cage.

Cage has long been renowned in Hollywood for his devotion to comic-strip culture. When his third wife Alice gave birth to a boy two years ago, the Cages named him Kal-el, which every comic-book addict knows was the name that Superman was given as a baby on the planet Krypton.



Voodoo Child is different because it's "more spiritual than, say, a Superman or a Batman," Cage says. "That's always been more effective because there's more believability to it." The stories will be rooted in some real-world scenarios. Set in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina, Voodoo Child tells the story of Gabriel Moore, a child murdered in the antebellum South by secessionist soldiers. Just before dying, the boy puts a voodoo curse on his soul, leaving him in a netherworld to cope with gang violence and abductions in the modern-day city. Weston says he had tinkered with the idea since seeing hurricane damage in New Orleans, where he and his father lived part time for years. "He has been drawing comics since he was 3. He was a natural to do it," says Cage, who is overseeing the story lines and working with X-Men writer Mike Carey.



The series is written by Mike Carey with art by Dean Hyrapiet. The cover for the premiere issue was created by Ben Templesmith.
