Marvel and DC should watch out because “Dungeon Crawler Carls” may be the next huge fandom.

Author Matt Dinniman’s “Dungeon Crawler Carl” series began as a self-published novel in 2019. The series follows Carl, a Coast Guard veteran who is thrown into a deadly, video game-inspired dungeon when Earth is taken over by aliens. The book series has expanded into eight novels, and Peacock has ordered a live-action adaptation that has readers excited to see the world come to life. Dinniman hosted two panels at San Diego Comic-Con and stopped by the Variety Studio, presented by Google TV, to ensure fans that he’s listening to their hopes for the show as it gets underway.
