"Jonathan and Joshua Luna&amp;#039;s Image series The Sword has attracted interest from filmmakers in Hollywood. The creator-owned comic concludes this week with an over-sized issue #24, but its characters could make the jump to the big screen in the future. &amp;quot;There certainly is a good amount of interest from Hollywood, which seemed to accumulate as the series progressed over the past two years,&amp;quot; Joshua told Newsarama. &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;ll definitely talk to people while we&amp;#039;re working on a series, but we won&amp;#039;t sell anything until it&amp;#039;s complete and the final issue is literally on the stands. Our properties are our babies, so we&amp;#039;re extremely careful with how we handle them.&amp;quot; Jonathan added that the book could also be adapted for television. &amp;quot;We can see it as a film or television series,&amp;quot; he explained. &amp;quot;The story is episodic, so TV would be a great fit, but film obviously offers a higher budget for special effects, which we have high standards for. &amp;quot;I tend to tell my stories very cinematically, so an adaptation was definitely in mind.&amp;quot; The Sword follows a young paraplegic named Dara Brighton, who embarks on a quest to avenge her family&amp;#039;s murder aided by an enchanted blade. Its final issue arrives in stores this week. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
