One of the major advantages a comic book adaptation has is that it can streamline events and ideas from different writers and eras to fit a cohesive narrative. Also it can try to clean up messy plot elements without having to adhere to the canon of something established decades ago. Sometimes it can do so with characters, making a c-lister stand out more or even altering a problematic racist caricature into something more salvageable.

What would you say is a character, plot element, or storyline that was done better in an adaptation than a source comic?
