>>153340290>Invincible on it's final arcsUnless Kirkman rushes it the show still needs 4 more seasons to finish adapting the comics.Back on topic I still want an I Hate Fairyland cartoon even if that means adapting the sequel.

>>153340340>>153340290I REALLY hope they do spawn next >HBO animated show had 1 season, was kino but cancelled>Can use the success of invincible to help sell spawn to a newer generation >Keith David is still alive but getting older >Story complete just like invincibleThe down side is i really feel like spawn needs a more classic hand drawn animation style like a 90s cartoon to really fit the vibe aesthetically. Its supposed to be kinda like Batman the Animated Series, theres others that came after but art style wise nothing fits batman better The other down side is if it isnt animated by the same people that did the invincible series you average normie might not give it a chance
>>153347982even the normgroids hate Invincible's animation, especially as it gets worse and worse in service of more and more celebrity voice actors
>>153340290This is what's confirmed to get animated (Faust is probably canned though) but don't hold your breath until we get an actual trailerThe list of cancelled adaptations (animated or otherwise) is LONG
>>153340290I mean, they could adapt the series that The Boys was a rip-off of.I remember when i first heard about The Boys and had this exact conversation:>Oh, you've not heard of it? Basic plot, evil corporation made a serum that turns people into superheroes, so they made their version of the Justice League who play like the heroes, but are actually just authoritarian assholes, with the most authoritarian asshole being their Evil Superman. There's a group of guys trying to take them down because of the whole moral bankruptcy and because evil Superman was responsible for the death of his family.>You mean like Marshal Law?>What's that?>Basic plot, evil corporation made a medical proceedure that turns people into superheroes, so they made an authoritarian asshole Superman to push their agenda. There's a group of guys trying to take down all of the evil superbastards and being pissed that he's not allowed to just go kill moral bankrupt Superman who was was responsible for the death of his family.Seriously, why does nobody EVER bring up Marshall Law when The Boys is brought up?
>>153348187>outside /co/far too niche on every level for normgroids to even have heard of>>Epic Comics is megadead>>Pat Mills is a literal who for non-enthusiasts>>almost 40 years old and hasn't been reprinted all that much>on /co/it comes up in every Boys thread that's not a storytime
>>153348076>Something is Killing the Children>W0rldtr33i guess i could see Something is Killing the Children, but tynionshit like W0rldtr33 with no clear direction, uninteresting characters, and a storyline that drags on and on and on would be incredibly frustrating to watch. the only comic that would be even worse to adapt would be The Nice House on the Lake.
Relevant>"Can a Keynote have a postscript? There are no rules, we can do what we want. I couldn't be more excited about the future of this industry and I don't mean in an I'm doing a Keyote at ComicsPRO way, because what I'm seeing with Invincible and the way that the animated series is fueling the sales on the trades in the direct market is something that, to me, is a sign that there's a potential to build something really exciting in this industry, that will sustain us for years and years and years. I'm getting flashing red zeroes? I've gone overtime. I'm very sorry.">"So what I mean is: everybody talks about manga and how successful manga is. The thing that makes manga so successful is the manga-to-anime pipeline. With Invincible, we're seeing that you can, with American comics, basically do the exact same thing. Invincible is an animated series that adapts the comic book very closely, and it is doing really well. All of the streaming services are so excited about adult animation that they are rolling out entire divisions trying to do that. I think that has more comic books adapted in this way, because having done Invincible, comics being adapted into animation really is the most seamless transition. I feel like the two mediums are just made for each other. So I think that there is a future where we can have a comic-to-animation pipeline that will fuel this entire industry in a completely unprecedented way. And we're already seeing the beginnings of it now. So I'm very bullish on the future of this industry. I love you all. I'm sorry I stammered a couple of times. Thank you so much."This was from Kirkman at ComicsPro Skybound is definitely gonna double down an animated adaptations but the catch is that Skybound animates in-house now and...look I like Invincible but man is show's animation team understaffed and rushed because Kirkman doesn't get how animation is different to begin with
>>153348187Marshall Law is never as entertaining as The Boys, and man does it start going downhill precipitously from the original limited series.
>>153344849>>153346039Irredeemable discussion is weird now because it's now pigeon-holed as the "third option" for an evil Superman comic story that isn't literal Superman.Like the Plutonian is only relevant solely for people to compare him to Homelander and Omni-Man like some sort of bragging right to even know the character is a thingPersonally, I don't think a show will happen because of "saturation" concerns
Just waiting on this to finally happen so my comics go up https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXm3TiceTvU
>>153348439You need to adapt both Irredeemable and Incorruptible to make it work.
>>153348015Yea they do, but nobody knows spawn is owned by the same people. You can market it like "from the creators of X" but unless it shares the same art style most cattlw probably wont get that it is
Irredeemable
>>153348439Plutonian is just extra petty though, omni man had a mission and homelander is a corrupt asshole, but plutonian sank singapore to the bottom of the ocean for shits and giggles.
>>153340290The production company behind Black Dynamite tried to make a movie out of Rick Veitch's Brat Pack back in 2010 (went nowhere), maybe someone will try again?
>>153350147Please Christ noIt's bad enough what Veitch did to a perfectly good ending just to fluff his own ego
>>153350182Wait, I haven't actually read Brat Pack yet (I only know Veitch from The One), what happens that ruins it? I thought people on here really liked it.
>>153350078Yeah I get that but Omni-Man and Homelander are also VERY different characters as well and they still get compared simply because they're both "evil Superman"Omni-Man vs Homelander was never even a debate that crossed people's minds until their Amazon debutsI totally get why people want Irredeemable adapted (apparently Netflix got the rights in 2022 to make a film but let's be honest, it's probably dead) but it'll only invite people who will just think the film is a shallow "knock off"
>>153350210The original print run ended without bothering to go too far into Maximortal and wrapped itself up reasonably neatly. Veitch decided he really, REALLY needed another mini about his evil Superman (who's a side character at best in BP) which necessitated changing who the big bad at the end of BP was and his motive. The other problem is Veitch's black comedy cynicism about capes was audacious and groundbreaking in the mid-1980s but par for the course today.
>>153350281Plutonian's the least interesting character in the book, the focus goes away from him frequently and screenwriters would end up radically changing him. Also his antagonist's motive being a fag for him won't fly today and good fucking luck with "electrical powers black guy calling out how cliche it is."
>>153350324Fascinating. I'll keep that in mind when I eventually read it, so I don't go for the TPB version.
>>153347982>Story complete just like invincibleSpawn's very much still going, though it does seem like Todd's going in circles with it these days
>>153340290Damn homie looks baked
>>153350387Not him but you could still do the story all the way until Jim became Spawn
>>153350377I'm that guy who hates change and will lecture you about why the original anything was invariably purer and better, so take my opinion with a grain of salt. That being said the original ending is the one on readcomiconline and it's unsatisfying to some.
>>153348439But Plutonian is the only "real" evil Superman. Omni-man was a soldier pretending to be a hero and Homelander is just an asshole. Tony isn't the best character but a good writer could easily improve him in a cartoon plus his universe is far more entertaining than The Boys'
Inst ultraman the actual evil superman?
>>153350458I understand that, since I'm that guy who usually imprints on their first exposure to a story so I try to see the original whenever I think it's the best way to view it.But are you saying that the alternate ending isn't on Readcomic? How could I read it, should I become curious? Has it been storytimed on here, and does the thread on desu still have its images?
>>153350324Maximortal is not evil. he is just legally different superman for his schizo writing.A lot of "maximortal" is occult talk, he is just implying superman is an idea with life of it's own and exists beyond the collective conscious of humanity, and that's why is so powerful and people try to corrupt and change but can never do it properly. All the weird crap that happens in that comic is just metaphors for him to explain his ideas indirectly because any attempt at actually saying this outright would be too confusing to understanding by logic alone, so you use metaphors to describe abstract concepts. Like stories of old, poetry, myths and whatever.It's literally the same themes present in Bratpack, he just decided to further explore them in maximortal more.
>>153348187>the series that The Boys was a rip-off of.They are two different stories. The ending of the first Marshal Law comic is a college student’s thesis that all superheroes are closeted homosexuals who hate themselves. The Boys isn’t concerned with the psychology of superheroes that way. The real story is Hughie and Butcher.
>>153340340>Spawn still has the Bloomhouse movie getting worked onIt will almost certainly never happen because Todd Macfarlene is a notorious control freak and prone to self sabotage.
Fables maybe? Or is Once Upon A Time still too fresh?
>>153348439>>153350486I'm against an Irredeemable adaptation in any way shape or form because the last thing Mark Waid needs is his ego stroked further.
>>153351059Technically it already got one with Wolf Among Us, but it probably wont ever get a film adaptation because Bill Willingham burnt the house down when WB screwed him over by making the IP public domain.
>>153350281>Netflix got the rights in 2022 to make a film but let's be honest, it's probably deadThey got spooked when Jupiters Legacy underperformed.
>>153351094Anon that was a year before the got the rights to Irredeemable
It wrapped up filming late last year and it’s post production right now, we’re probably gonna get some marketing within the next few months
they could try making original IP again?
>>153351249>they could try making original IP again?This thread is about adaptations of comics you idiotNobody is saying they should replace IP made from the ground up (though given the way people treat Invincible and The Boys after their show debuts, they might as well be lumped together with "original IP")
Uber?
>>153351281yeah and a lot of adaptations are either travesties or getting butchered meaning they should get it together or stop
>>153350707The problem is they weren't necessary to explore.
>>153351682>It ends up being about unlicensed taxicabs
>>153343111>Goon Movie - definitely coming™Netflix is waiting to see how well Ray Gunn does to see if they want to go forward with more non-kiddy animation.
>>153340290Conan & King Conan + BPD
>>153351682Isn't the IP in legal limbo?I don't think people would take kindly to a comic that on a first glance looks like a /pol/ack's wet dream
>>153344849welp good news anon its getting adapted but in a monkey paw way
A delightfully fucked up story starring a severely deranged man, and he's the hero. Spawned a sequel and a prequel, both as good as this. I can't recall if it's ever been storytimed here.
>>153351916That was in 2022We don't know if it's alive or not
Here's the thing, only popular things get adaptations. It doesn't matter if it's good or not, because the point is merely to cash-in on an established audience. Which is why you see shit just based on memes like the Backrooms or SCP, and why you see shit like The Boys and Invincible get adaptations despite both of those comics being fucking terrible.So practically nothing mentioned in this thread is going to get an adaptation, because it's not recognisable to a general audience.>>153351059Imagine that Bigby Israel speech in the current climate.
>>153352022We're talking about comicsInvincible and The Boys had their fans but they weren't these huge sellers even for comic standards
>>153352081They are both recognisable because they are parodies are works that are widely known. Superman but bad. You're not going to tell me either of those works is very original.
>>153352133Mate, fucking Revival got a show recently
>>153352133They are many "Superman but bad" comics. There was nothing special about the boys or invincible. Miracleman, Irredeemable, Brat pack, Maximortal mog them.
>>153352022>Here's the thing, only popular things get adaptationsPolar got a movie. Bulletproof Monk got a movie. The Beauty got a TV series. Just to name a few.
Something I've noticed is that /co/ does not give a flying fuck about live action adaptations of comics unless it's capeshitIt's technically board legal the same way live action adaptations of manga is legal on /a/ but /co/ doesn't care unless it's capeshit, animated, or bothYou can probably count the amount of The Walking Dead threads about the show here within the past decade with your two handsThis has me thinking, with all the prior live action adaptations of comics in the past decades which ones do you think would have resonated more on /co/ had it been animated instead?
>>153340290Not a comic, but Worm might make for a decent animated adaptation.
>>153352580>Not a comicSo completely irrelevant to what OP was asking for retard

>>153352744>boneFuck no. Keep that gay shit away from my streaming services.
>>153352744>comic book accurate v for vendetta remakeFor Moore's sake please no
I'd kind of like to see an adaptation of The Manhattan Projects, but they'd probably make it too grounded instead of the "Death Buddhists powered a portal to send through kamikaze robot samurais" wackiness.
This thread really shows how little people read anything anymore and how basically nobody has any inkling of what would work as a live action adaptation, as in could work as an appealing show for mainstream audiences
I just hope they never adapt Irredeemable. We've had enough evil superman stories.
>>153351075>Technically it already got one with Wolf Among Us, but it probably wont ever get a film adaptation because Bill Willingham burnt the house down when WB screwed him over by making the IP public domain.Except WB insists in their supposed contract that this wasn't what was agreed upon, so it's hinging on whether you trust WB or Willingham's word for it.I don't think WB will do anything with Fables until Willingham just straight up dies.
>>153352517A History of Violence?The Green Mile?Marry Me?
>>153352865>and how basically nobody has any inkling of what would work as a live action adaptation,I'm 50% sure most people are pitching for animation given the board topic
>>153352981The Green Mile was a Stephen King adaptation
>>153352989If almost everyone is pitching just animation then it’s even sadder
>>153351249>thread about adaptations>"uhhh guys why aren't you guys advocating for muh original content"/co/ really brings out the brightest minds
Empowered
>>153352744>johnny the homicidal maniacThe time for that one was 20 years ago
>>153343111>Beneath The Trees Where Nobody SeesIf that gets turned into an animated show or movie, I hope it looks less like right and more like left.
>>153351733Oh, they are. Brat Pack is about the corruption of morals and values. it goes in to how even pure concepts in nature like justice, freedom, equality and love can be corrupted by the greedy.as they corrupt the youth with their distorted world views and it's all packed on this cynical view on society were the ones who speak the truth are villains but finish with an "optimistic" note about those values being reborn a new bringing destruction to the old order.Maximortal is deeper, it goes beyond morals and ethics, it speaks of something further, not even spiritual but almost alien altogether, yet deeply connected to humanity. It's both this almost spiritual view on superman and what he actually means, how the attempts at being used for profit or war propaganda could never contain him as mere that, it speaks about very esoteric ideas that I noticed myself before and how powerful they are once understood. We and Veitchs are very similar types of schizos so it probably speaks deeper to me than the average person, I will admit this much.If you don't like is alright, as simple comic book stories about capeshit they are not that good, just edgy and weird, their underline message is what speaks to me.
>>153352744Witchblade is terrible though.
>>153353540cute feet
Astro CityPrometea/Tom Strong to made Alan Moore mad.
>>153340290We just got a Get Jiro show announced
>>153355556One would hope AstroCity doesn't get a show because I do not want to bother with some 5$ budge sweatshop animated show where they'll probably make all sorts of changes to 'modernize it' or some other shit.Moore would probably get an adaptation of Top Ten, it's cops and an entire city made of supes so I assume that would be an easier sell than ubermench futuristic tarzan gets a hot jungle babe wife and goes on adventures.
