Salman Rushdie contemplates writing a graphic novel

In a recent appearance on The Late Show with Craig Ferguson to promote his new book The Enchantress of Florence, controversial author Salman Rushdie revealed his surprising fandom for superhero comics and his desire to write a graphic novel. In the clip below he makes it sound like it's nearly a done deal, and I'll be very curious to see what he cooks up.

(Some fanboy types are pointing out that Rushdie actually got some details wrong talking about the difference between red kryptonite and green kryptonite... But given that the fatwā against him has never actually been lifted, I'd say he has more important things to worry about.)
