Easy enough topic. You can choose any form of media, whether it's movies, television, novels, heck, even already existing comic characters who don't have an ongoing. But what comic do you wish exists that current does not?

Personally, I'd kill for a Harry Potter series of comics by DC and supervised by JK Rowling. Just like Marvel is having a major success with their Star Wars brand, I feel DC can capitalize on the HP franchise in a similar way, with titles such as;

-Harry Potter, Year 7

-The Life and Lies of Albus Dumbledore

-Voldemort: Path to Immortality

-Hagrid: Search for Grawp

-Hogwarts, A History

-The Adventures of Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot & Prongs

etc.

the HP world is so vast, it can easily accomplish this.

@the_stegman: Where'd you get that HP art? It's incredible. As for the topic id say I'd want a LOTR or Elder Scrolls comic.

@the_stegman: Whoever drew that, they need to put in a comic. For anything.

An ongoing Witcher comic book that takes place after the 3rd game.

A limited series or story arc that touches base on T'Challa's exploits before he became the Black Panther (his adventures, his time at Oxford, who he trained with in martial arts with/what fighting styles he learned or mastered/which master trained him, etc).

@nerevarine_11: @the_stegman: A Harry Potter comic would be a huge smash for DC and WB but the reason it hasn't happened is beacuse the film rites and the book rites are different, same for Lord of the RIngs. JK Rowling and Tolkien don't want to lose or weaken their ownership of the property. Tolkien has even sued WB over it a few times.

As for comics I would love to see:

Indiana Jones

Morrowind

Malazan Books of the Fallen

The Expanse

Prince of Persia

The Culture

@jonny_anonymous: Yeah, I know Rowling is very protective of HP, rumor has it she even sued a guy who wrote fan fiction about it once. But, I was hoping with Harry Potter making a resurgence this year, with new theme parks, a new film and a new book, that she'd let DC capitalize on it just a little.

Did they ever make a grown-up Powerpuff Girls comic? I read there was some controversy about an IDW cover but the contents still seem to be classic PPG.

@the_stegman: As vast as the Harry Potter world is, I still feel like HP and Voldemort ate up the plot and setting leaving little if any room for side stories not involving them; and that's a real shame.

I just don't think it's something JK Rowling is ever going to do, 'capitalising' on Harry Potter just doesn't seem like her M.O. If she were to do a comic, it would be a full endeavour, she'd probably have veto power and would basically be funnelling her imagination into it, it'd probably be one monthly series. You're never going to get a dozen monthly series at once where she gives writers and artists a free reign to do what they please, which, to compete with Star Wars, you would probably need, because one comic series won't cut it, though Harry Potter is probably one of like, five I.Ps that could legitimately compete with Star Wars. It has a more solid female fanbase for a start.

I'm also worried about the Lord of the Rings when Christopher Tolkien passes away, I could be wrong, but I believe his eldest son will inherit the rights and he is very much pro-film, I hope he isn't a money grabber and starts pimping out Tolkien's works.

For me:

  • Nolan Batman comics, set between Batman Begins & TDK (Behind the scenes material states there's a five year gap IIRC)
  • More DCEU Tie-in comics.
  • Prequel series about Jesus (The Walking Dead)
  • Riddick comics.

Cassandra(Cain) and the Renegades(Onyx Adams and JPV). They can go around the world to fight crime, just kickass and hang.

Sadly, DC and the rest of the Batfandom seem to be gearing for a BoP-lite. Or Babsgirl and friends.

@the_stegman: Thanks.

A better version Naruto's manga. Same plot, but that doesn't have so many plot holes, gives some killing and blood (not because of the gore, but because it is strange for me that so many of Naruto's enemies end becoming good guys or exploding like Power Rangers' monsters), and give more "screen" time for other characters, trainning, animals, the culture of both Ninjas and civilians and the cities in Naruto's world. And that the author study some medicine to understand why people can't transaplant eyes so easily.

HP is pretty fleshed out as is but I think a young Dumbledore would make a great story, maybe they could write it with the backdrop of whichever world war Grindelwald started, kinda an intrigue, spy type thing where we see the Muggle and wizard worlds alligning. Maybe even a Muggle main character.

This is just a few of the names that popped into my head. I may post more later.

  • Harry Potter (More Ginny and Luna plz. Bellatrix could use a series too.)
  • Lord of the Rings (I'd love to learn more of the two wizards that aren't in the movies.)
  • The Hunger Games (I need more Finnick)
  • Teen Wolf (Probably the only way I'll ever see Jackson or Ethan again.)
  • I am Number 4 (Such an interesting universe)

Controversy is actually a very accurate word to describe that. At least make them look normal....Would they really be going around like that? Who would even read it?

As for me, i'd like to see Lego manga. They blew it with Exo-Force, and I don't know when they'll get another opportunity to do something like that again...

  • A Shin Megumi Tensei based manga that would likely actually be original content or follows one of the games closely(like Nocturne) providing the cannon story. Or at least one that is finished translating.
  • Black Knight and Sersi ongoing
  • An Xcom comic with a pretty high rate of death

I'd definitely read a grown up PPG comic. Especially if they retain their OP power levels from the show. XD

1. Molecule Man ongoing series

2. Silver Surfer vs Solar, Man of Atom ( crossover battle )

3. The Return of Emperor Joker

All of this would be great.

In addition off the top of my head...................

  • a good Silver Surfer series. A long lasting solid series with amazing artwork and a great writer. Give it to Hickman and let him pick an artist, heck bring back Ron Lim.....
  • A Pacific Rim series.
  • a Marvel Team-Up and Marvel Two-In-One series that wasn't a joke and didn't suck.
  • Some really good mini series based off of Video Games (which has been done before). I would like to see Asura's Wrath.
  • A horror classics line dedicated to Frankenstein, Wolfman, Dracula, Invisible Man, etc.... but done in a deluxe format, and in black & white. top notch artists, and taken seriously.
  • a Colossus solo series that was actually good.
  • a rebooted, steady version of Marvel's "What if?"
  • bring back The All Star Squadron.

The cover that caused the controversy wasn't the one I posted above. The one that created the ruckus was less revealing, but the girls had breasts and some parents thought that was too salacious for their children to handle. It looks very anime inspired to me, but it also reminds me of those big-eyed children paintings of artist Margaret Keane.
