10 Movies You Didn't Know Were Comics

Secret graphic novel origins…

Whiteout is arriving in cinemas on Friday.

We've seen it promoted at at least two Comic-Cons (it's taken a while to reach screens), and what you may not be aware of is that it has an actual comic book pedigree.

The Kate Beckinsale thriller is based on Greg Rucka's graphic novel, which got us thinking about other movies you might think were originals, but actually have their birth in the four-colour pages…

A History Of Violence (2005)

I read Watchmen before the film was made, Marvel seems to be making a film out of every half decent character and now having read this feature, it seems as if most graphic novels are being turned into movies now.

Could you do a feature on which are the best graphic novels that are or are potentially being developed for the big screen please?
