I have an idea that is begging to be turned into a graphic novel- and subsequently make the path to cinematic adaptation a much more concrete investment for a lot of buyers. Because as we all know, intellectual property is king.
Has anybody ever gone down this road?
Is it a similar process to the film business where one has to present the idea to a publishing house and get commissioned? or does one find an artist and essentially do the whole thing on spec?
And how do the rights work? Does the artist share ownership of the material 50/50 if it gets turned into a movie?
