What are some popular comic adaptations of novels?

There are quite a few. 'V for Vendetta' is a great example. It was adapted from a novel and became a cult classic. The character of V and his fight against a totalitarian regime was brought to life well in the comic. Also, 'A Wrinkle in Time' has a comic book adaptation that has introduced the story to a new generation in a different medium.

Maybe because they change too much of the story or characters. People who love the original comics don't like those big differences.

There are quite a few. 'Maus' is a very famous one. It's a graphic novel adaptation that tells the story of the Holocaust in a unique and powerful way. Then there's 'V for Vendetta', which was adapted from a graphic novel. The story with its themes of resistance and political change has attracted a large audience. 'A Wrinkle in Time' also has a graphic novel adaptation that brings the science - fiction adventure to a new set of readers.

Some popular ones include 'Sword Art Online'. It's set in a virtual reality MMORPG world where players are trapped and have to fight to survive. Another is 'Re:Zero - Starting Life in Another World'. The story follows Subaru as he repeatedly dies and is reborn in a fantasy world, trying to change the course of events. 'Overlord' is also well - known. It tells the story of a powerful wizard who gets trapped in a game world and his adventures there.

Some good ones include 'Accel World'. The manga adaptation of the light novel tells the story of Haruyuki and his adventures in the virtual world. 'Date A Live' is another example. The manga showcases the story of Shido and his encounters with various spirits. 'Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash' also has a manga adaptation. It shows the characters' struggle to survive in a harsh fantasy world.

There is also a manga adaptation of 'Pride and Prejudice'. It adapts the social commentary and the romantic relationships from the original novel into the manga format. The visual representation of the characters' emotions and the different estates in the story can make it an interesting read for manga fans and those familiar with the classic novel.

Comic book adaptations of novels have several advantages. Firstly, they can enhance the marketing of the original novel. As the comic gets noticed, more people may become interested in the novel. Secondly, they can add a new dimension to the story. Through illustrations, the mood and atmosphere of the story can be better conveyed. Finally, it allows for a more dynamic storytelling experience as the combination of text and visuals can be very engaging.

I'm okay as long as the comic adaptation respects the characters and plot of the original. Changes can be okay if they enhance the story, but not if they ruin it.

One popular example is 'The Sandman' which was originally a comic book series but has also been considered as a graphic novel adaptation of various mythologies and literary concepts. Another is 'Watchmen', which is a graphic novel adaptation that deconstructs the superhero genre in a very unique way. And 'Persepolis' is a great graphic novel adaptation of an autobiographical book, presenting a personal and political story in a visually striking manner.

A more recent popular one is 'Watchmen' by Alan Moore. It's a deconstruction of the superhero genre. The graphic novel adaptation is dark and complex, exploring deep themes such as morality, power, and the human condition. It has also been adapted into a movie, which shows its popularity and influence.
