List of comics based on films
This is a list of comics based on films. Often a film becomes successful, popular or attains cult status and the franchise produces spin-offs that often include comics. The comics can be direct adaptations of the film or a continuation of the story using the characters, or both.
Comics also allow a degree of flexibility which can result in crossovers with other film characters as well as those from comics. In particular, the Aliens and Predator comics have crossed over with The Terminator, Superman, Batman, Judge Dredd and Green Lantern.
There are a number of companies that specialise in licensed properties, including Dark Horse, Titan, Avatar and Dynamite Entertainment. With the bigger series the license can often pass between a number of companies over the history of the title.
