Are all the properties based on comics published by Caliber?
No. Many of the properties are indeed based on comics, but not all of them. And of those that are, not all were published by Caliber. Such an example is Disciples which is currently being published by Image Comics (home to Spawn among others).

Are all the properties here owned by Caliber Entertainment?
The majority are but in many cases, the comics are co-owned by the creator and Caliber Entertainment and agreements are signed that Caliber Entertainment has full representational rights.  But all of them are represented by Caliber fully.

If in comic book format, it can be assumed that the comic is the storyline that would form the basis of the script (if a film script)?
Not necessarily. Comics and film are entirely different mediums and all of the creators and talent behind these properties fully understand that. What may be suitable for one format may not necessarily work in another. this applies for any property considered for console games, video games, online games, webisodes, etc. The comic should be considered one approach and serves to generate the basic concept of the property.

These properties are being made available to consider as film properties?
Yes, but it shouldn’t be limited to that . They can also be considered for games, television, online interaction, and even publishing.

Are all the rights available on these properties?
The rights are all available unless specified otherwise on the description of the series.

What is the best selling Caliber Comic as that would undoubtedly be the most popular and the one that should be considered first?
Well, the best selling comic we did was our rendition of Frankenstein and that was followed by an adaptation of the Rocky Horror Picture Show. There really isn’t any correlation of the sales of the comic and the concept that should be considered in evaluating a property. After all, when Caliber launched its first five titles thirteen years ago, the worst seller had initial sales of less than 3,000 copies. Although it developed a following, even a year later, the sales were just over 10,000 copies. That was The Crow which has had considerable success as a film/tv property. For non-Caliber comics, Men in Black was a dismal failure with sales hovering around a couple thousand copies and quickly cancelled when it was released from Malibu. Barb Wire and The Mask were both cancelled series due to low sales when the films were released. Mystery Men was just a back up feature that had one or two brief appearances. So, there is little connection between comic sales and how viable the translation to film is. But for the record, the better selling titles found here from Caliber Entertainment (in no particular order) would include Raven Chronicles, U.N. Force, Deadworld, Realm, Disciples, Renfield, Red Diaries, and War of the Worlds.

What is the advantage in considering a comic book property over an actual script or even a fleshed out treatment?
Comic books are perfect vehicles as, in a sense, they are already storyboarded. If the comic storyline is under consideration, it is much easier to go through the comic and assign a visual sensibility to it and edit it at the storyboard stage and make the necessary changes. Even on the properties that aren’t based on comics but rather a treatment or even a story outline, the authors are used to presenting the story in a visual sense and can present it that way in a quick and artistic manner.
