Escape From New York Anime?

Cinescape Magazine reports that film producer Debra Hill has hopes to turn anti-hero character Snake Plissken of John Carpenter’s Escape from New York and Escape from L.A. movies into an iconic super hero “such as Spider-Man, Batman and Superman.” The marketing blitz will include a new comic book series, novels, a Japanese Anime feature and a video game. No additional information on what Hill calls a “Japanese Anime feature” is presently available.
