Ghosthotel posted:Lucifer the comic is a fantasy epic about free will vs predestination that they turned into a procedural cop drama. And thank Christ they did, because trying to emulate the comic on network television would have been an unwatchable mess. The best issues are the ones where Lucifer appears in a single panel to go 'Oh, what are you guys doing in here? Get out of my house' or whatever and that won't fly when you're trying to get an audience invested in a lead. I'm perfectly content with 'the devil solves mysteries' as a television show concept, and my only dumb comic book nerd complaint is why would they even use the name Mazikeen for whatever this awful bartender character is, fuuuuuck. I understand that budget constraints mean you can't have that kind of make-up/cgi treatment for a character that is likely relegated to being a glorified extra, but goddamn. Maz deserves better. It's not even like Mazikeen has name recognition for the general audience; they could have used any drat name. I have the sinking feeling that this show is going to go the way of Forever and I'll make the mistake of watching its first season, get invested, and then it will be gone
