Warner Bros. To Adapt DC’s Hourman

Warner Bros. and DC comics are expanding their relationship with a brand new DC adaptation!

As first reported by DC Fandom, Hourman is heading to the big screen. For those unaware,  Hourman tells the story of

“a masked vigilante who uses a drug named Miraclo to give him incredible super-powers for exactly one hour. Rex Tyler is the original version, a scientist who created the chemical and fought crime during the Golden Age. Rick Tyler is his son and successor, the second Hourman. Matthew Tyler is a super-intelligent android created in the 853rd Century who traveled back into the modern era and held the position for several years”

According to reports, a film project based on Hourman has been in consideration over the past decade, and the character almost saw the light of day back in 2013, when DC began developing a series around the Rex Tyler character for the CW.
