After LOVING the Netflix movie, I wanted to see how the original comic compared. While it's got all the same vibes, and same general outcome, they're clearly two different media. But in a good way. I loved the movie for all it's jokes and messages about mental health and how the folks in charge don't always have our best interests at heart; and the comic had very similar vibes too, but it's clear characters and characterizations were changed quite a bit from the original in the adaptation from the original web comic, but thankfully, done in a way that captured the essence of those characters and made them just as loveable and enjoyable in either format.
