Summary The comic book industry has long turned to TV and film for inspiration, with iconic properties like Star Trek, Power Rangers and Space Ghost making their way into print. When it comes to shows, the industry has historically offered a way for audiences' favorite stories to continue on, sometimes giving them a conclusion they were robbed of by network cancelation. These titles can often become bestsellers when adapted to comics, thanks to a built-in audience.
