i read the first 3 volumes two or three years ago and thought they were groundbreaking. i loved how dark they were and i loved how they portrayed a somewhat realistic "you're heros and loved ones probably won't survive if this really happened" scenarios. far too often in comics the heros always win, and should one ever die it was either a dream, illusion or they come back to life via some enchantment bullshit. the novels were amazing and the last 30 pages of the first volume fucked me up so bad i had to go for a walk after i finished the read.
the show is pc in every way. they're killing off "the bad guys" in the typical hollywood bullshit way. i really can't connect with any of the characters and we're 2 episodes into the second season. i just don't give a shit about any of them. t-bone is a pussy... not the badass he was in the comic. no samuri sword carrying woman who was the baddest of the bad?!? no prison?!? wtf is going on here?!? a whole episode searching for a girl i could care less about... it all makes no sense and it just pisses me off how poorly the show has been written. the comic was such a better story.
