Though they’ve become a major factor in pop culture, superhero adapations will sometimes deviate from their source material. Sometimes this is necessary, as some elements don’t age well. (Go look up Iron Man’s origin story in Tales of Suspense #57 and tell me that would have worked in a film.) Other films, particularly Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem, have managed to take beloved characters in an entirely different direction while staying true to the core of what made said characters great.
