The Best Live-Action Comic Book Adaptations Of The Decade Not From Marvel Or DC, Ranked

Based on Mark Millar's Kingsman series, Kingsman: The Secret Service was a spy comedy hit at the box office. And while future Kingsman films steered away from the source material, the 2015 film offered a proper introduction to one of Millar's finest works.

It should be noted that a major difference between the film and the comic is the main organization: In the comics, the MI6 houses the bevy of spy outlets, while the Kingsman is its own organization in the film.

Dynamite Entertainment's The Boys was an instant hit when it debuted on Amazon Prime Video. Developed by Supernatural showrunner Eric Kripke, the series switches up the story with new characters and altered origins, but the animosty for unlikable, spoiled superheroes still remains a central theme.

"We really focused on making sure we got the characters right. 'Cause I think that's a big part of why that book works," Kripke told Screen Rant.

Several years after Gerard Way's Umbrella Academy series was optioned, the adaptation finally found a home on Netflix in 2019. The live-action version changes a few key elements from the series, including The Handler and Ben's appearance. But despite these alterations, the show graciously brings the dark superhero tale to life with the aid of showrunner Steve Blackman.

"They’re very curious what Gabriel and I are doing next. We always send them the new comics," Way told Collider.

Sabrina Spellman was originally set to join Riverdale, but Archie Comics CCO Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa decided to give the character her own series.

Based on the comic book of the same name, this show offers a darker take on the witch of Greendale. Needless to say, fans of the '90s sitcom Sabrina the Teenage Witch were in for a shock with Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.
