Agreed. An Adam Strange film could be really really cool. Lots of fun, lots of adventure.
I tend to enjoy the character concept more than his early adventures. However there have been some more recent comics featuring him I would recommend. My most recommended is "Adam Strange: Planet Heist". Revamped the character. Really like this version of the costume. Amazing artwork!!! http://www.dccomics.com/graphic-novels/adam-strange-planet-heist Then his segments in "52" we're pretty good. Great story, but not just specific to Adam Strange. Definitely worth reading! After "52" he appeared in the very enjoyable mini-series "Countdown to Adventure". Picks up after "52", but can read it as a stand-alone. Good stuff! http://www.dccomics.com/graphic-novels/countdown-to-adventure I do not recommend the Rann/Thanagar War stories. Some people enjoy them, but they didn't really engage me.
