Arn't "Mighty Crusaders" part of DC now?

They were but they've returned to Archie since. Apparently they're available on an Archie Comics digital application. But since I don't know the first thing about obtaining comics digitally (nor do I want to), I don't know much about it (hopefully they print these on paper for us luddites).

Some of these are a bit older, but I would like to see them adapted into other media...and I haven't seen them mentioned anywhere in the thread yet...

Strangehaven by Gary Spencer Millidge-great quirky little tale of the residents of a village that gathers strangeness to itself. Character driven stories without the need for big sfx budget to adapt.

A couple of graphic novels that speak to our troubled times...Palestine by Joe Sacco and Fax from Sarajevo by Joe Kubert.

Mike Oeming was involved in a couple of projects that would make for great animated features or series in Mice Templar and Hammer of the Gods.

A couple of Jim Starlin projects would look great on te big screen...Dreadstar-epic sci-fi but would take a relatively big budget unless done as an animated feature and still then, and 'Breed, a sci-fi horror cross-over with plenty of cosmic weirdness.

The Xeric award winning Roland Days of Wrath would make a great historical epic featuring a Christian-Muslim conflict in a historical context leaving a lot of room for allegory or thematic exploration in a modern film project.

Scott Snyder's Severed is an excellent horror tale that has a lot of possibilities.

Bryan Talbot's Adventures of Luther Arkright is a cosmic mindbending tale of alternate realities superbly told and has potential to translate into other media. His Tale of One Bad Rat is a smaller powerful tale of childhood abuse that is simply exquisite story telling.

Going very old school you have things like Steve Englehart's Scorpio Rose originally published by Eclipse comics in the 80's, the character later showed up in his Coyote series, crossed over with Warrior Nun Areala and now appears in his Long Man novels. Rose is a woman cursed with immortality and a gift as a seeress who hunts down occult threats and objects around the world.

Kirkman said a couple of years ago that he was working on a script ( or maybe last year)

I read he was writing one back in 2008 for paramount (or someone) but the rights have since reverted back to him.

I had hoped that a Usagi animated series could have been spun out of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series from a few years back. Those episodes where Usagi and Gin guest starred are some of my favourites.

I would like to see Ed Brubaker's Criminal books made into movies. Just so long as they are marketed properly. Drive and Faster both had good stories to them, modern day noir tales, but what you saw in the trailers/adverts was totally different to what was actually in the movie.

Well, I know this comes off douchey, but I figured what the hell.

I'd like my comic to be made into a movie. It's called BINARY GRAY - it focuses on an IT tech named Alex Gray who gets the ability to communicate with electronic devices through physical contact. He begins searching for his father's killer, while he himself is being hunted by an Agency trying to manipulate him into doing their bidding.

I've had it described as Spider-Man meets the Matrix. It has a sharp sense of humor, action and drama while combining aspects of classic and modern era comics.

You can see more at the website - AssailantComics.com

Thanks!

If I had to suggest anything else, it would probably have to be something related to Preacher. Not sure if that counts as "independent" though. A movie trilogy or animated series would be amazing.

I also feel kind of weird nominating me and my partners creator-owned web series Robot God Akamatsu : http://robotgodakamatsu.blogspot.com/
But it would be an awesome giant robot vs kaiju flick... And the best part is that it's on the east coast.

* I would love to see an Atomic Robo live action or animated.
* The Kill All Monsters comic is looking promising http://www.facebook.com/killallmonsters

Most anything with mechs or monsters will get my vote
