Each month, Panels in Motion talks about a non-superhero comic book that was adapted into a movie. Whether it's old or new, American or international, the hosts seek to answer the questions: What makes a good adaptation? What's the difference between comics and film? And who in their right mind approved some of these decisions??
This month we're covering the first two volumes of the Lone Wolf and Cub manga and the 1972 movie Lone Wolf and Cub: Sword of Vengeance. Opinions are varied as we discuss Japanese brush painting, blood splatters, cowboys, and shocking revelations about Daigoro's actors.
Next Month: "Ghost World" comic + Ghost World (2001) movie.
