10 Comic Books You Didn't Know Were Written By Celebrities

10. Occult Crimes Taskforce - Rosario Dawson

There are some actors that the nerd community as a whole just connect with, and there are few quite like Rosario Dawson. She connected the Defenders Saga on Netflix as Claire Temple, and most recently has made a huge splash in the Star Wars universe as Ashoka Tano.

One of the reasons there is such a strong connection here is that she is a geek herself. Not only has she made an impact on screens over the years, but she has also penned her own comic and even lent her own likeness to the main character.

Over the property's short run of just four issues through Image Comics, Sophia Ortiz worked for the titular outfit that essentially worked as a police force but dealt with crimes related to the realms of magic and the occult, in particular putting her on a collision course with a supernatural killer.

Though the comic book didn't last long, its film rights were acquired in 2006, and a TV show was reportedly in the works six years later. Neither have seen the light of day as of yet, and with Dawson set to be a big figure in the ongoing Star Wars renaissance, it may be that these four issues are all fans will ever be able to enjoy.
