Steve Niles Talks 'Tyrannosaurus Rex' vs 'The Nail' http://www.bloody-disgusting.com/news/12695 Print This Page We still don't know if Rob Zombie's Tyrannosaurus Rex (teaser image) is loosely based on his comic book THE NAIL, which was published in 2004 by Steve Niles and Zombie's Creep Entertainment International. But today Steve Niles updates his blog that addressed the issue and still makes me think that T-REX was inspired by NAIL. Read on for the story. "I've been getting a lot of calls and mail about Rob Zombie's new project, Tyrannosaurus Rex," NIles writes on his blog. "People seem to be under the impression that Rob is doing The Nail and cutting me out. This is not true. Not only is T-Rex a different story, but also Rob is 100% owner of The Nail and is welcome to cherry pick anything he wants. It's his concept. I was just along for the ride." I personally take this as stating that it still could have some elements from THE NAIL. Either way, at least there's no hard feelings between the two genre favs. "There are NO issues between Rob and I. Creep might be dormant at the moment, but we are not ruling out more team-ups down the road." Source: http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendID=46768990&blogID=408602362
