Comic adaptations that are NOT capeshit

Yes, this thread is another attempt to move away from just talking about capeshit comics.

So, what are some great non-capeshit comic adaptations out there?

Forced meme/10.

V for Vendetta and Watchmen were alright. Not as good as the comics, but still decent enough to warrant a watch after reading the original. Making Moore salty makes me happy.

The two Punisher films, plus Dirty Laundry, were pretty good action films. Kingsman is apparently a good film, though I've never watched it.
There's also the Men in Black films, which were based on a comic.

Blade and Big Hero 6 come to mind.

There's also some tv series, like Swamp Thing, Constantine and Preacher.

Can't think of much else off the top of my head.
If you think any of those fall under the "capeshit" meme, you're an idiot.

I dunno if the Crow counts as capeshit. I'm guessing otherwise.

Red was a comic? Annie was a comic as well?

Loved that movie. Is the comic pretty much the same as the film. I would like to read it but I fear it would be the exact same so what difference would it make. Its the problem I have with the Batman Year one adaptation. Good movie but so accurate to the point it makes me wonder why watch it when I could read the comic.


I'm getting a Daria vibe from this.

The Crow comic was a lot grittier.
The violence was more visceral, the protagonist was more damaged, it was a very personal story for the author, who had lost his fiancee to a drunk driver.

user, I didn't mean that Big Hero 6 is capeshit because of the animated movie.
I mean it's capeshit because the original comic is capeshit.
The animated movie still makes them superheroes.
Superheroes = capeshit. I don't know why that's hard to believe.


The Crow is on my list after watching a 'What's The Difference' video on it. Embed related. Mostly the same, but the focus is mainly on the depression aspect, and rather than some fights being more intense, the Crow doesn't actually have trouble curb-stomping his enemies. Because he's just a vengeful, unbeatable spirit that needs to overcome his depression. That aspect interests me more than the movie.
I also like the art.
