Coming soon, the next big Marvel hit: The Human Fly! Wait, what?

If you're drawing a blank on this guy, then don't feel bad, up until I saw this post on Geeky Girls Love Sci-Fi, I didn't even know this guy existed. Apparently, the Human Fly was a comic that ran back in the late 70s for 19 issues. Interestingly, the character himself was based on a real life stuntman whose identity was never revealed.

The movie isn't being made by Marvel itself, however, but by two guys who bought the rights because they really, really wanted to make a movie about an incredibly obscure comic book character. On the other hand, if you go to the official website, it looks like it might be a documentary about the actual Human Fly. Yeah, That makes much more sense than a comic book movie.
