That’s not the case for the upcoming comic.
Like film, comics are a specific medium with strengths and weaknesses compared to other forms of art.
And in this case,Megalopolishas a lot to gain from a graphic novel reimagining.
AMegalopolisgraphic novel sees Coppola’s vision come home to the medium that can serve it best.
The graphic novel is a new way for fans of the movie to experience a story they already loved.
However,Megalopolisis doing something different.
Thats what I feel Chris, Jacob Phillips and the team at Abrams ComicArts have accomplished.
One example is theFireflyfranchise.
However, the franchise survives through graphic novel continuations.

However, even here,Megalopolisis unique.
WhileMegalopoliswasn’t received well, there’s no denying that Francis Ford Coppola’s concept is ambitious and creative.
Francis Ford Coppola’s Megalopolis has a unique live interaction scene available in some showings.
Here’s what we know and how you might see it.
Megalopolisisn’t just an opportunity to remake something that was widely panned, but toreimagineMegalopolisin a new way.
