Oscar-winning actor Jamie Lee Curtis has made a separate career for herself as an author. Her bestselling books for children encourage them to be silly, be patient and like themselves.
But her new graphic novel, Mother Nature, is more in line with the horror movies for which she's known.
The scream queen co-wrote an "eco-horror" screenplay, which New Yorker illustrator Karl Stevens adapted into a graphic novel for Titan Comics.
"I went through a lot of cadmium red," he told fans during a panel at the recent Comic-Con in San Diego.
"Because there's a lot of blood," added Curtis. "There will be blood in this book."

The story is set in New Mexico, where an energy corporation is fracking under land leased from a Native American woman. Her daughter Nova tries to sabotage the project and is struck by lightning. Nova then becomes the spirit of Mother Nature, who takes revenge for being destroyed."...
