Raimi bringing more superheroes to the big screen

Sam Raimi, acclaimed director of, amongst others, the Spider-Man movies, is planning on bringing a host of other superheroes to the screen. He has taken control of the rights to almost all heroes from the defunct comic book publisher Street and Smith Publications. Street and Smith used to publish heroes like Doc Savage, The Shadow and The Avenger. Not much more info, sadly, but Raimi seems to be excited, as he is planning to direct the movie himself. In my opinion the previous movie starring The Shadow, starring Alec Baldwin as the titular character, is one of the most underrated superhero movies in history, with it's cool style and intriguing story. I'm really looking forward to seeing what Raimi is going to do with this character, as well as the many others.
