S2 Ep22: Is Alita: Battle Angel A Good Manga Adaptation? - 4-Panel Vol. 2, Issue 22

Author: The Geek Show February 27, 2019 Duration: 1:10:44

The Hollywood live-action adaptation of Yukito Kishiro’s seminal science fiction series Battle Angel Alita (Gunnm), is out in cinemas, but have James Cameron and Robert Rodriguez finally cracked the formula for adapting manga and anime? Andrew, Mick and Rob went to the cinema to find out, but one of them convinced the other two to try the cinema “experience” known as 4DX for the first time.

What could possibly go wrong? 

After that it’s back to business as usual with our regular look at comics and manga that we’ve been reading, which this week are Moon Knight: Phases, Moon Girl And The Marvel Universe, the second collected volume of Die Wergelder by Hiroaki Samura, and Deadpool: Mercin’ Hard For The Money.

Dive deep into the vibrant, inky world of graphic storytelling with 4-Panel | Comics & Manga. Hosted by the crew from The Geek Show, this podcast feels less like a formal review and more like hanging out at your local comic shop, eavesdropping on the most passionate, knowledgeable, and slightly chaotic conversation in the corner. Each episode is a journey through the panels, where the latest superhero movie news might spark a deep dive into its obscure source material, or a review of a classic manga can derail into a hilarious debate about the weirdest trends in sequential art. You’ll hear genuine reactions to the most exciting and baffling news from both Western comics and Japanese manga, alongside unfiltered reviews that celebrate masterpieces and lovingly roast the odd misfire. The charm of this show lies in its authentic, meandering energy-the hosts get genuinely excited and distracted, following tangents that often lead to the best insights. It’s a celebration of the entire culture, from big-screen adaptations to the indie zine you’ve never heard of. Tune in for a weekly dose of enthusiasm that reminds you why you fell in love with these stories in the first place.
