10 Non-Superhero Comic-Book Movies That Must Happen

6. Black Science

Industry veteran Rick Remender has created some exceptional comic books, and Black Science is one of his finest yet. Black Science follows a team of scientists on a dark, strange trip through multiple dimensions. Protagonist Grant McKay, formerly of The Anarchistic Order of Scientists, has cracked Black Science itself and found a way to break through the barrier of reality to reach alternate worlds. When the team's mission goes wrong, they're left to survive in one bizarre dimension after another, encountering all kinds of nightmarish species. Featuring a high concept and endless possibilities, Black Science is almost tailor-made to be a movie franchise. Science-fiction remains as much a draw for mainstream audiences as ever, with recent hits like Interstellar, The Force Awakens, and Guardians Of The Galaxy exploring the genre in a variety of tones and styles. Black Science's core concept is akin to Quantum Leap, with McKay and his companions stranded in a seemingly infinite struggle to get home. There is massive potential with this comic book, and if given the proper script and budget, it could become a hugely successful blockbuster. A director like Duncan Jones, as comfortable with action as with intelligent science-fiction, could bring a magic touch to the material.
