Comic Versus Adaptation: Wanted

Movies and television based off comic books are a staple in modern entertainment. The quality may vary, but the quantity can not be denied. When the source material is adapted, it’s not uncommon for changes to be made. Some time even major changes. And once in awhile those changes can make the story…better. But not always. Welcome to My Big Fat Pull List’s premier episode of Comic vs Adaptation, where in we discuss the differences when the comic pages jump to life on the big, or little, screen and determine which version is better. In this episode we have the difficult task of comparing the 2003 comic book Wanted with its nearly unrecognizable 2008 film version!
