According to Entertainment Weekly, the comic is written by Greg Pak with illustrations from Daniel Bayliss.
The most important part of the comic however, is Jack Burton from Big Trouble in Little China will meet Snake Plissken from Escape from New York, both of which are of course by played by Kurt Russell in their respective movies.
John Carpenter, director of both movies, has given the comic his blessing. Carpenter feels Metal Gear Solid is a rip-off of Escape from New York, however urged CanalPlus not to pursue Konami for damages.

MacReady from The Thing to make it the trifecta of Carpenter/Russell roles!
