I was thumbing through the comic book today, having heard many times from many places that this was scene for scene an adaption of the comic book, I was actually surprised with how different it was (don't take me the wrong way here, almost every panel of the comic is in the film, but the film add and takes liberties.)

What surprised me is some of the most comic bookish moments of the film were no place to be found. For instance the scene with the "orc" sort of thing, not in the comic. The scene with the fat beast with blade arms, not in the comic. Those two scenes were the fakest and silliest scenes in the film and neither were in the graphic novel (those to scenes made me feel like I was watching Van Helsing or something equally as poorly done). The comic is actually very serious compared to the movie. I really like them both (well, only read the first issue of the comic and thumbed through the rest, but it is very well done IMHO. This is coming from a guy who has never really been a fan of Frank Miller either).
