Look, having been through the comics myself, I can agree that the shows adaptation isn’t faultless, but it’s a shame seeing how so much of the discourse this week is about the complaints people have for the way things have been delivered with the show this season.
No shade, but I hope the comic folks having a bad time at the moment learn to let go and just enjoy the show for what it is. Great casting, faithful recreation of the OG story- We’re so much luckier than the vast majority of comics fans getting the adaptation we are.
Peace and love, bring on the downvotes I guess 😅
I never understood the whole being mad because an adaptation isn’t identical to its source material thing. The point of an adaptation is that it’s a different lens to view the same ideas from, it’s kinda pointless if it’s identical. It’s one thing if it is a bad change they make, like if something just doesn’t work, but most of the time it’s just different due to medium differences. Condensing volumes of comics into 40 minute episodes means some stuff gets cut if the series is ever going to end in a timely manner.
Because the source was perfection in comics realm. Condensing is fine, just don’t change underlying themes and tones to make up for lack of impact that the animation is severely lacking.
