It only took
twenty-plus years, but I finally got one of my favorite comic miniseries animated (the Dark Knight Returns
on the horizon; Doom Patrol beyond that, in a parallel universe through the black hole), and apart from a few omissions, like the memorable line above, it was as faithful to the source material as I might have insisted upon. Each and every storyboard, so it was almost like watching those Marvel cartoons from the Sixties “come to life”, and as glad as I was that they kept the now-retro 90’s references of Princess Caroline and the Porsche 928, I miss Mazzucchelli’s art most of all.
