Most people don't think of Alien or Predator as comic book movies because they was movies first then they was made into comics. Even "Alien VS Predator" was based on charters that started out in the movies first.

Yes,but without the comic-book,the movie wouldnt exist

I think you're wrong. The movie exists because both the Alien and Preditor franchise have grown into huge cult favorites. They question "Alien vs Preditor; who would win" has been around for years. The fact that they had a skull of an Alien in the Preditor's spaceship in movie 2 shows that they created that link between worlds a long time ago.

You forgot a lot of movies, even if you're only starting from 1966 and including those that had an American release. I have somewhere a 400-page Spanish book on comic-book films.
For example you dind't include "Danger Diabolk" (1968) or the two live action Asterix. For a more extesive list go to:

There's no reason why this thread cannot be updated. If you know some dates and stuff that can be added, post them and perhaps Figma will have the time to update the original post.

I know there were plans back in 2000 to make a Shi movie starring Tia Carrere. Not sure if it got made, though.

Let's keep'em rolling:
[2005]Iznogoud
[2004] Immortel (ad vitam) (this one is very good).
[2004]La vraie vie des Dalton based on the Lucky Luke comics.
More to come...

 

[FlameHead]

Yes, keep em rollin...

Although, I'm not sure if the original plan was to make a list of movies released on this side of the world. I'm not sure though. I'll leave it up to the thread master.

 

[T1000416]

I believe that casshern was an Anime first. From everything I've read it started as an anima TV show back in the 70s.

Isn't "Iznogoud" a comic strip that is kinda like "Asterix"? In fact I think the same guy that made Asterix made Iznogoud.

I agree. That should be a thread to themselves.

There were two Prince Valiant movies...both sucked.

 

[Lord Blackbolt]

And there was Faust and G-men from Hell.

All comic movies....that went straight to video

Not to mention the Alien Vs Predator video games are HUGE successes. I think they've done like 6 games or more.

Now I see people listing characters from comic "STRIPS" like Prince Valiant or Dick Tracy or from what I call "Kiddie Comics" like Casper or Richie Rich and that's ok, but for me I always try to separate the characters that started out in comic "BOOKS" from those others.

But that's just me.

I agree. Comic strips and comic books usually contain very different characters and stories. It's best to seperate movies based on the likes of Garfield and Peanuts to ones based on Batman and X-Men.
