Movies Based on Comic Strips

Here's the list of all the movies and movie serials that are based on American comic strips that I could find. I've only included ones that ran in American newspapers, as that's my area of focus. I also haven't included well known magazine gag comics, which is why the Addams Family movies are not on the list (sorry).

Movies that I've watched so far will have a link to a review of some kind. I hope to watch the majority of the ones on the list eventually, though some of them don't seem to be accessible at this point, either due to not being able to currently stream or buy, or even due to just plain being lost media.
