So since I ordered the compendiums.....where does the TV show start getting different? I've watched up until season 4.

Overall, I like the show better. The story is more solid, the characters better written, and I think the writers of the show have more respect for the story than the comic.
Kirkman sets up a ton of story lines in the books and then in one fell swoop will kill a dozen characters, wiping out their story lines. And while that's his prerogative and I understand he's saying "anything can happen," I feel like that's disrespectful to the material and its readers to destroy so much so fast on what feels like a whim. But there's a violence and brutality in the comic books that I really enjoy, and characterizations that they'll never show on TV. The Governor, for one; he's a charicature of evil in the books, and that's kinda fun. But David Morrissey does such a great job with the role, backstory, and such that I much prefer his Governor over the books. And I think we're building up to a character called Negan in the show, and I honestly have no idea how they'll do it, because as evil as the Governor was in the comics, Negan is way worse. Bottom line, I think the comics are worth reading. I bought the compendiums, and every few months when they release a new volume, I pick it up. |
