Any more bits on this? I read the cast list on IMDb and freaked out again how so unlike the book it is looking. I think the reason why they boiled down the cast list was because each character had 1) a tragic flaw and 2) something to do for the "team." Tom Sawyer, while nifty in idea, has little in the way of demons to be exploited by Campion Bond, at least I would think so. And the "action guy" role is being filled already by Nemo and Quartermain. Dorian Grey...er...why? And then the spookiest...Dante!? Er...he'd be quite old, dontcha think?
Okay, sure it is a comic book..but the story was thick and deep enough with the existing cast. To throw in the apparently immortal Dante, while cool if a part of a new story, does nothing (yet, I suppose) to add to the whole M plotline. Sheesh. Stick to what's there.
