Although the distinction between graphic novel adaptations and so-called superhero films can be a bit vague, I've separated them for the benefit of those who are not especially fond of superheroes. Some comics/graphic novels can be quite entertaining and even thought-provoking, and it can also be surprising to learn a film's origins. Included are categories for toy and video game adaptations.
