Yet another DC/Vertigo title is being adapted for television. According to The Hollywood Reporter, WGN America is developing a small screen take on Scalped, which ran for 60 issues over five years. The TV series will be written and executive produced by Doug Jung (Banshee).

Neither studio is planning to move, setting up a collision course for the ages. In the meantime, it looks like…
