Continuing to farm out their properties to comic book publishers they don't own, Disney has licensed the comic book rights to their upcoming live action Aladdin movie, directed by Guy Ritchie and starring Will Smith, Mena Massoud, and Naomi Scott. Dark Horse will publish an anthology awkwardly titled Disney Aladdin (Live Action) TPB on April 30th, a month ahead of the film's May 24th release date.
