I am fine with it, but with that said I have yet to see it done well. Most of the time it is just a cash-in on the popularity of said cartoon in order to try and get more money off the kids who like it.

I always use Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles as an example. The original comic version is awesome (or at least it is when Kevin Eastman is involved with it). The cartoon based of the comic is also awesome (for arguably different reasons, least of which the comic is targeted at teens while the cartoon is targeted at kids). The comic based off the cartoon that is based off the comic though, that is actually pretty bad. All it does is rehash stories from the cartoon, and very rarely create anything new. That even extends into the modern iterations of it: TMNT ongoing is great, TMNT Adventures is bad.
