Vertigo book 'Exterminators' in development at Showtime.

Simon Oliver and Tony Moores' Vertigo comics series 'Exterminators' is set to be a TV series on Showtime according to The Hollywood Reporter'.

Sara Colleton, executive producer of the outstanding 'Dexter' series is set to  develop the show.

Vertigo's publicity site describes the comic as following "the dysfunctional adventures of exterminator Henry James and his freakish supporting cast as they take on the cruel chaos of nature in the dirty corners of Los Angeles — only to stumble upon a secret that could well reverse the positions of exterminator and pest!"

The Reporter adds: "In its Showtime incarnation, "Exterminators" will revolve around the Bug-Be-Gone crew, an extended dysfunctional family of exterminators whose greatest enemies aren't the insects and rodents they meet and kill on a daily basis but rather their own self doubts, vices and inner demons."

The book originated as a TV pitch by Oliver.
