Songs that would make good comics.

86 posts in this topic

I was just listening to the radio and Hotel Califirnia came on. Being the complete comic nerd I am, I starting thinking what a cool concept that song could be for a comic or graphic novel....most likely a mini series.

With the right art style it could be quite excellent.

 

I started wondering about any other songs that might make interesting comics/graphic novels. The other one that popped into my head right away was a song called the whistler by White buffalo. Here's the link if you're interested, pretty cool song.

 

 

Any other songs you can think of that might spawn an interesting comic/graphic novel?

Blue Monday, That's when I reach for my Revolver, Thunder Kiss 65, Blister in the Sun, Mirror in the Bathroom. Best I can tell just about any cool song title could work for this

 

I was thinking more along the lines of the story of the song than the title...

Most anything by the Smiths. In fact, I am guessing that it would be one of the best indie comics of all time.

But any of these songs have great lyrics enough to craft a theme around and the titles could be the name of the book.

 

Few more Born to run, Jungleland,
