In my opinion, the Die Hard movies are some of the most fun flicks any group of guys and sit around and watch. Great action, great one liners, great humor, great bad guys, great hero… you really can’t ask for much more.

But if you love Die Hard, it looks like “more” is what you’re about to get. No, not another movie, but rather a prequel comic book called “Die Hard: Year One”. The guys over at Comic Continuum offer up this:

America’s greatest action hero is translated into the sequential art form for the first time! Every great action hero got started somewhere. Batman Began. Bond had his Casino Royale. And for John McClane, more than a decade before the first Die Hard movie, he’s just another rookie cop, an East Coast guy working on earning his badge in New York City during 1976’s Bicentennial celebration… and the Summer of Sam. Too bad for John McClane, nothing’s ever that easy.

I’ll pick this one up when it comes out.
