Thanks, capmonte. I do anticipate such a response.

BUT... there are Indiana Jones comic books. Therefore, he is indeed a comic book hero.
Other than Conan, few properties that started outside of comic books ever seem to gain the reputation of "comic book" heroes, despite subsequent adaptations into the medium. In other words, mentioning "they put out Indiana Jones comic books, too" does not seem to matter as much as if you could say "Indiana Jones started in comic books", which you cannot, since he started in film.
