Rocker Rob Zombie and author-cartoonist Steve Niles have created Creep Entertainment Intl., a horror-themed production company. The duo will begin with three comicbook projects that, down the road, are expected to be adapted for films: "The Nail" with Dark Horse Comics; "Bigfoot" with IDW Comics; and "Lords of Salem," a combo music-comics project.

All tales were co-written by Zombie and Niles. The books will be illustrated by some established comic talents.

"Comics have become the storyboards for movies," Zombie told Daily Variety. "All our comicbooks are stand-alones and are done in a movie way. We're actually working backwards -- these look like comic adaptations of films."
