Rainbow Six instantly comes to mind as it's based on a Tom Clancy novel. Metro 2033 is a novel series too. Suppose you could count Dynasty Warriors too since it's based on ROTK.

Anything else good?

    Wacky detectives Sam and Max were comic book characters before they were video game uhh... heroes.

    Many many games based on lovecraft stories.

        Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth is a fun time, though it can be... Less than stable. Which, given that the development seemed like a Lovecraftian nightmare itself, isn't completely surprising.

        It balances a feeling of powerlessness with moments to fight pretty well, in the beginning, but the back half kinda drops into a bit of a Power Fantasy.

        Darkest Dungeon is loosely based on a load of them, but mostly "The Rats in the Walls".
