This is the second part of my Most loyal comic-book Heroes post.
Out of all these characters, who do you think has the most loyal adaptation? Which version do you think has strayed the least from it's original source?
The rules remain the same: I ask you to bear in mind their origin story, gadgets/weapons, costumes, personality and moral code before you decide.
If you don't mind and have the time to do it, please state who you voted and why.
In my opinion, I have to go with The Violator, from Spawn. Leguizamo's Clown looked exactly like he had to, and his interpretation nocked it out of the park if you ask me.
