UGH

Just fucking UGH

I can see the reasoning behind changing what was a perfect 'You made me this way/I am a monster' comic. It wouldn't have translated well to film and all that, but shit, they didn't have to go and take away that core mechanic. Instead I get something that looks like a mash-up of The Highwaymen/The Losers/That movie where Tommy Lee Jones and Clint Eastwood go into space.

I should probably calm down a little before posting but fuck it.

So this is now the 2nd comic to movie adaptation that fills me with glee and yet also does not make me care to read the source material at all. Fantastic.

Looks like a typical action film.  I'll wait till it comes to TV.

It was on a Wildstorm imprint, Homage comics or sumthin.

There's something that really bothers me about the fact that even the posters proclaim loud and clear that the actors are more important than the character. Bruce Willis has got time to kill? No, motherfuckers, Paul Moses has got time to kill! Bruce Willis is an actor! Anyway, more posters that are practically begging to be photoshopped:

Yeah that bugged me too.

Warren Ellis is very disappointed in you.
