8 Exciting Upcoming Comic Book Movies You Need To Know About (That Aren’t Marvel Or DC)

The Comic: Image Comics' Invincible was created by The Walking Dead's Robert Kirkman, and follows young Mark Grayson, son of the superhero Omni-Man, who begins to develop powers of his own - super-strength, flight, healing - at the age of 17.

Since Mark is only a teenager, he has to go to school, then university, and go on dates, just like a normal kid. Invincible very much revolves around this struggle between Mark's normal human life, and his insanely powerful alter-ego.

The Movie: Universal hired Seth Rogen and his frequent collaborator Evan Goldberg to write, direct and produce an Invincible adaptation in 2017, with the goal being to make the property as successful and famous as The Walking Dead.

Earlier this year, the pair told Mashable that "we can do anything we want" while making the movie, with Kirkman giving them his blessing to go all-out and make Invincible as irreverent and shocking as they like. Considering the great job Rogen and Goldberg did with adapting Preacher for television, giving them free reign can only be a good thing.

The property has also been set up as an adult animated series at Amazon, but as THR noted in their June 2018 report, Rogen's movie is still very much in development.
