  I don't know, this isn't really bad, okay adaptation, but I don't like the changes that were made here, plus the writer might be a real classic Stan Lee fan - most of the dialogues and thoughts of characters here explain things, that are easy to understand without words. Silent scenes from the movie are spoiled with tons of text here... It feels too naive and overexplained in a bad way.Are comic readers in the mind of the writer that much dumber, than the audience of the movie? The art is fine for the most part, but I don't like the way Rogue is drawn here. I really can't see the difference between her and Jean... All in all, it retells the movie quite well and only some moments feel rushed, but once again, the changes weren't necessary and good. Plus it misses some scenes, that felt important for the movie. For example, there's definitely not enough Rogue in the adaptation. I also don't understand why they did put the origin of Storm near the origins of Magneto and Rogue... She's still a chair in the adaptation just like in the movie, but they could at least then still add origins of Cyclops and Jean Grey if they decided to add Storm's one... more
