Posted by Luke Brown On May - 12 - 2010

Celebrities creating comic books has become more and more common over the course of the last few years. The latest star to try her hand at comic writing is one Rashida Jones, who you may remember from I Love You, Man or Parks and Recreation. Teamed with Oni Press, Christina Weir, Nunzio DeFillipis, and Jeff Wamester, Jones’ comic Frenemy of the State reads like a premise just dying to be optioned for a feature or television adaptation.
