South Town guy posted:Or is it simply possible to really want a comic to exist based on something that seems interesting to enough people, pitch it to a publisher, and then go from there? I wonder if on some level it's an inversion of the trend of comics and characters potentially having more monetary value if they move beyond their print origins and into film/TV/merchandising. If I was the producer of a cancelled TV show or a movie with seemingly no sequels or reboots in sight, or wanting to (re)build some hype and awareness, letting someone do a comic book version of it seems like it has the potential to show investors/studios that the property not only is still viable. You've also got all these ready-to-be-adapted stories you can mine from it if for film/TV production, too. I'm not too well-versed on various issues of IP and Copyright/Trademark laws, but could maybe there be an issue of using things like comic book continuations and adaptations as a way of proving you, as owner of the IP, haven't abandoned trademarks, names, etc.?
