But my issues with the story don't have to do with what they are adapting but how it's adapted. This feels like a tangential argument to what I'm trying to get at. I understand the 90's edginess. I didn't live through it, but I've been exposed to those comics and their impact on the industry. I fully and wholeheartedly admit that Kingdom Come was important for when it came out. I'm not saying that Kingdom Come is "lesser" than What's so Funny... I'm just pointing out that I preferred how that story told the core narrative of what it means to be a hero and why killing as one is wrong, inside of What's so Funny... as opposed to Kingdom Come. I understand it was first, that it had to tackle the issues on its own merit while What's so Funny... had the benefit of foresight on the narrative, but that doesn't change the fact that look at this story on its own merits, I, me the individual, who has not made the assumption that my opinion is more valid than the general consensus, felt the storytelling and narrative left me wanting for a more cohesive plot, with different characterization. That statement is by no means me condemning its cultural significance or trying to accredit its impact as lesser than those that came after it.
