List of comics spin-offs

Criteria for a comics spin-off


Before a comic can be considered a spin-off, it has to match the following criteria:

*It cannot be a remake of a pre-existing series. A common example would be the re-imagining of DC Comics Silver Age from their Golden Age counterparts.

*When a series undergoes a name change, its successor is considered a spin-off from the original series. For example, Scarlet Spider is considered a spin-off from Spider-Man.

*"True Spin-Offs" are spin-offs that take established characters from one comic book and give them their own book or series (e.g. Silver Surfer from Fantastic Four). "Engineered Spin-Offs" are spin-offs that introduce a character to one comic just so that that character can anchor a new series, an example being the Thunderbolts spinning out of The Hulk. Series such as Young Avengers which have no immediate connection to previous series but are still known to exist within the same fictional sphere are called "Franchise Spin-Offs".
