New graphic novel adaptation of 1961 Twilight Zone episode “Real Martian Please Stand Up"

Designed to introduce the classic television series to a new generation of SF fans, author Mark Kneece and illustrator Rich Ellis have teamed up to create Rod Serling’s The Twilight Zone: Will the Real Martian Please Stand Up? (Walker, 2009), a graphic novel adapted from the eponymous 1961 tv episode. The storyline involves two state troopers who are called to investigate a rural UFO sighting. The troopers question seven people at a roadside diner, only to find that one of them is not from Earth.

This is one of my favorite episodes from 'Twilight Zone'. I'm not sure if it'll make a good comic, but why not?
