According to THR, DreamWorks Animation has picked up the rights to Oni Press' Maintenance comic book after Warner Bros. put the project into turnaround. The title was created by Jim Massey and Robbi Rodriguez and was originally published in December 2006. DreamWorks has not announced a writer, director or producers for the project as of yet.

Here's the synopsis of the comic book from Oni Press:

You think your job is bad?

Doug and Manny have you beat! These guys are janitors! But they’re not your typical custodial crew--no, sir! They’re the guys who keep things shiny and clean at TerroMax, Inc., the world’s biggest and best evil science think tank! When they’re not dealing with toxic spill monsters and talking mansharks, they still have to worry about mad scientists, crazy would-be dictators, and the cute girl who works at reception!
