Adam Adamant Lives! should be a prime candidate for revival in films or in an Alan Moore graphic novel.
Part of the origin story was that the title character, who had been in suspended animation from 1902 to 1966, had already been known as a popular hero before his suspension. A young 1960s woman who had been a fan of Adam Adamant the historical figure becomes a close up fan of the real guy here and now. What could be better?
There could be several series set in:
the Victorian and Edwardian periods;
the '60s;
the future, as Adam and the villainous Face go back into suspended animation.
Apparently, Adam's finances were unexplained but that could easily be fixed with an inheritance and/or a government agency investigating his suspended animation.
