Deadly Class should have been an honorable mention. I'm looking forward to it more than most of those, personally.
Comic books greatness
Why are so many comics explicit? Not that I have anything against it… just asking.
Iren see lock and key we add Tatian right now guy love horror comic books that's I want to see
There is no fucking way that they are going to adapt the boys and anyway that's nearly close to the comics
So this is what you'll be seeing at cons being cosplayed smh
What about invincible it is getting a movie
Also as far as y the last man is concerned Hollywood does not have the balls to put on a show with only one male character
Blacksad should be adapted
Thief of thieves?
hack slash!
Wait…what about the graphic novel, "Bone?" I know Warner Bros. animation is planning on making an animated movie adaptation on it.
Cowboy Ninja Viking is going to be great
No Sandman?!?!?
You are missing Comeback by image!
Girls will never be made into a movie or TV
SAGA would be lovely
Holy shit, they're doing Hack/Slash? Awesome.
And they'd better not fuck up Chew, The Boys, or Locke and Key.
Deadly Class should have been on this list!
I think Watchmen shouldn't be in this list cause it's getting a REBOOT
Where is Invincible???
They should really adapt Fables to TV!! It would be awesome
