When a beloved comic book finally makes it to the big screen a lot of details have to be considered. Most importantly, which parts of the story will the creators keep, which parts will they remove? Which characters get used and which storylines? The selections that movie makers chose can make or break a comic book movie. Comic book fans are serious about honoring their favorite heroes, villains, and storylines; and while they are open to updates and changes that enhance their experience, they can be downright mean when something is not handled correctly. Especially when it comes to comic book movie costumes.
