There have been some pretty good digital sales for Astro City, but I know the physical volumes may be harder to find. Apparently they're still going to make more new content as graphic novels, though I can imagine the current mess has delayed that a bit. As for the Invincible animated series, I'd expect them to at least slightly tone down some of the more questionable parts.

I haven't read The Boys, but from what I've heard, despite the show being pretty tasteless itself, it's way more tasteful than the comic.

drrockso20 posted:Wanted and Kickass both come to mind Depending on how you view it, Logan (the movie) makes the comic Old Man Logan irrelevant. I would argue that's kind of an apples-and-oranges comparison but I know a lot of people don't like OML so I don't begrudge them wanting to see Logan as a superior version that replaces the other.

I dunno I'd say the original Old Man Logan comic is still pretty decent, if edgier than it really needed to be(but it's honestly hard to find Superhero comics made past the mid 80's that don't run into that issue)

Netflix Punisher is so much better than every page of source material. Except the dating again page.

Open Marriage Night posted:What other comics were made irrelevant by their live action or animated adaptations? I don't want to say irrelevant, but honestly the Cloak & Dagger TV show does the origin and the leads' relationship in a much more relevant way. Especially since the original is so rooted in '80s New York.

All 12 episodes, about 2 minutes each. It's very worth it and fun. Marvel Rising isn't any of these things. The only redeeming quality is Quake's voice actress showing up in it as Quake other than that...eh.

Cuz man, i liked Netflix Punisher but felt it missed alot of the bleakness of Garths Punisher (which to me was a huge appeal of the run).

I liked Punisher MAX, but his other Punisher stuff is usually too Garth Ennis for me. Pee pee, doo doo, butts, superheroes are dumb, we get it dude.

Wouldn't place it as a superhero book myself but Ennis' Punisher MAX is one of my all time favorite comics but punisher s1 is pretty head and shoulders above non-ennis-max punisher comics

The next DC animated thing will be an anthology collection with a mix of shorts that have already come out anchored with a new interactive adaptation of Death in the Family. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2DpmjfHzRFg They're bringing back the original Under the Red Hood cast of Bruce Greenwood as Batman, Vincent Martella as Robin and John DiMaggio as Joker.
