People say not to compare, but c'mon
I prefer the webcomic much more than this live action. I think the show was going for something that didn't really fit the story and setting.
The original webcomic was a bit more horror oriented. With spine-chilling moments and creepy stuff happening and is kinda slow paced. But I think it shot itself in the foot by going for this over-the-top, action hero kinda show and, how can we forget because it's practically stuck inside the head of everyone who watched the show, using the same goddamn song over and over again everytime something remotely big happens. "Warriors" is a good song, but now I just get annoyed everytime I hear it.
I think if they were going a lot slower, be a little more meticulous, and maybe not have some of the creatures have spasms all over their body at all times, and not turn into a Hollywood action film for some moments, the show would have worked quite a lot better. They went a bit too grandiose with some of the cinematics and action scenes in my opinion.
But still, credit where it's due, the acting itself throughout the show is pretty good. Semi-realistic, and sticking pretty close to the characters in the comic.
Would I recommend it? Sure. If you wanna watch an interesting horror-action show, go ahead. But I implore you, go read the webcomic after watching the show. You might think it's meh, you might think it's leagues better than the show.
