Mr_Toitle I learned a long time ago to stop letting shit like this bother me anymore and just ignore it completely. H
i dont think ive ever seen a comic adaptation be majority faithful literally ever. the Mcu has adapted like 100s of characters at this point but basically 0 stories. sure they might take a popular element or two and shove it where it doesnt belong. like stripping everything cool out of planet hulk and shoving what remains into a joke of a thor movie. even more grounded stuff gets borked, the walking dead is at least in the conversation for most unfaithful butchered adaptations of all time. i do not understand why its like this but its always been this way. i think people just have a general lack of respect for comics and the stories they tell even if like half of all movies at this point are based on comics or at the very least a novel.
and it sucks because at the end of the day the comic book is the workhorse medium. its the medium where you can have a new installment to the story every month for decades with no breaks. even more once you account for spinoffs or if your title is successful enough to go bi weekly. stuff like movies and tv shows have a long gap between releases and honestly tv seasons are really short nowadays. its unfortunate that (arguably) the best storytelling medium we have is so overlooked by the general public. at best they get weird mutated copies of the source material.
reading back over this post im seeing its kind of a big rambling tangent but honestly ive already typed it out so screw it
