@DarkProject Jackie Estacado is a character in the superhero genre, and superhero comics have survived only because they're routinely mined for use in other media. Not since the '90s has readership been enough to sustain them, and _The Darkness_ is a poor performer among poor performers. (The last issue sold 5,856 copies.) Corporations don't tailor multimillion-dollar investments to such narrow groups of consumers. No, this game is not "meant for the fans of the comic." [I'm done with you.]

@DarkProject Superhero comics are made for readers of superhero comics by readers of superhero comics. It's an insular community. Maybe a couple devs want to appease that marginal group, but everyone else involved wants to make this title broadly palatable to a much wider range of consumers. How closely the game follows the comic has nothing to do with making readers happy. It's all about what 2K Games finds marketable.
