Viper Comics has acquired the rights to Inspector Gadget and Johnny Test.
The publisher will release graphic novels based on the popular animated shows next year.
"We're ecstatic to have been granted the opportunity to give both of these characters the comic treatment. These are two awesome properties to add to our lineup of recently acquired licences," said Viper's Jessie Garza.
Developed by Jean Chalopin, Inspector Gadget was originally broadcast worldwide between 1983 and 1986. It follows the exploits of a dim-witted detective with various bionic gadgets built into his body.
Johnny Test is a Cartoon Network property based around an 11-year-old boy who often serves as a guinea pig for his genius twin sisters' scientific experiments.
Official release dates for the Viper graphic novels are yet to be announced.
