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 get the sentiment but disagree overall. It’s our obligation to hold Amazon accountable when they clearly cut corners and prioritize the wrong things for profit. I don’t blame Kirkman for any of the flaws, I blame Amazon since they’re responsible for budgeting. And as we all know, they have plenty of money. If they wanted to they could make an 8 episode season entirely in Across the Spider-Verse animation style and it’d barely make a dent in their pocket. I also imagine they’re largely responsible for the skipping around and shortening of comic arcs, also likely due to a desire to spend less.
