8 Comic Book Movies Based On True Stories

There is no shortage of comic book movies in today’s media, however, there are some non-fiction comics that were made into films. The first comic can be traced back to 1837, which was written and drawn by Swiss cartoonist, Rodolphe Töpffer, and called The Adventures of Mr. Obadiah Oldbuck (via The News International). However, it was not until 1941 when the first true adaptation of a comic made the big screen with the release of Adventures of Captain Marvel. There are plenty of great comic book films, but very few are of the non-fiction genre.
