Reader Discussion – Which Of Your Favorite Comic Books Should Get The Video Game Treatment?
Many moons ago, Game Informer's Meagan Marie (who now works at Riot Games) listed five comic book series that she would like to see transformed into video games. Last year, Game Informer's Matt Miller selected two comic book properties in his "Five Franchises Telltale Games Should Do Next" article. With San Diego Comic Con in full swing, we'd like to hear from you next. Which comic book series is deserving of a video game? On top of that, what type of game should it be, and which developer should bring it to life?
Thanks to Telltale Games' latest efforts with The Walking Dead and Fables franchises, we're getting comic book experiences that don't just focus on action, action, action. The door is wide open for slow, narrative-based comic books to make a splash in the game space. I would love to see Telltale take on Garth Ennis' Preacher or Jeph Loeb's The Long Halloween. I would also love to see Animal Man come to life in an open world game. Harnessing the abilities of different animals would make world traversal a blast. Let us know which of your favorite books should make the jump to digital.
Submit your ideas in the comments section below, and we'll round up what we feel are the best ideas in a story tomorrow.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
