Ventimiglia to create comic book series
Published Friday, Apr 18 2008, 10:09 BST | By Beth Hilton

The actor, who plays Peter Petrelli in the NBC drama, has signed a deal with Devil's Due Publishing to create a four-issue miniseries called Rest.
He and producing partner Russ Cundiff will develop the books via their Divide Pictures company, with Mark Powers (Drafted) attached to write them from a story by Mike O'Sullivan.
The issues will focus on the dangers of staying awake as the Ventimiglia-inspired central character becomes embroiled in a conspiracy between a malevolent pharmaceutical firm and the US government.
The project will be unveiled at New York's Comic-Con today and published in the autumn.
If successful, the books may be made into a TV show or movie, reports Variety.
Ventimiglia can currently be seen in medical thriller Pathology.
