Comic book movies weren't always big business. There was a time when comics were considered highly controversial and shunned by Hollywood. Nowadays, the translation of words and illustrations to the big screen is a no-brainer. Hollywood Suite's Cam Maitland takes a look at a number of important film adaptations of comic books, graphic novels and Japanese manga, including Lady Snowblood (1973), Weird Science (1985), Barb Wire (1996), Mystery Men (1999), Hell Boy (2004), Red (2010), and Scott Pilgrim vs. The World (2010).
