Virus (comic book)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Virus is a Dark Horse Comics comic book, written by Chuck Pfarrer, drawn by Canadian artist Howard Cobb and published in 1995. The story is about an alien life form which takes over a Chinese research vessel and reconfigures it -- using both the damaged electronics and the dead bodies of the crew, it propagates itself by making various "creatures" created out of both organic and inorganic parts. When a salvage ship shows up they have to deal with the life form or be taken over as well.
Pfarrer said in an interview that when he wrote the original story in the early 1990s, the special effects wouldn't have been possible, so he sold the script to Dark Horse as a comic. It was later filmed (in 1999) as Virus.
