The Rocky Horror Picture Show was initially a flop on the large screen, but it built a cult following and is now the longest-running film in theatrical release. Caliber Comics published a three-issue comics adaptation in 1990-91 that was subsequently collected in several different trade formats (see “Caliber Comics to Offer Collections in ‘Previews’”).
