Panels in Motion, Episode 7: “Kingsman: The Secret Service”

Welcome to Panels in Motion, a monthly podcast where hosts Nick, Andre, and Luke discuss non-superhero comic books and their movie adaptations. Whether it’s old or new, American or international, the hosts seek to answer the questions: What makes a good adaptation? What’s the difference between comics and film? And who in their right mind approved some of these decisions??

Alliances are tested as the hosts discuss Kingsman and the suspiciously film-friendly career of Mark Millar. Luke talks about dads, Andre uses several bad British accents, and Nick gets a little sweaty.

Material discussed:
– “Kingsman: The Secret Service” comic by Mark Millar and Dave Gibbons
– Kingsman: The Secret Service (2014) movie, dir. Matthew Vaughn

NEXT MONTH: “The Adventures of Tintin” volumes 9 (‘The Crab with the Golden Claws’), 11 (‘The Secret of the Unicorn’), and 12 (‘Red Rackham’s Treasure’) by Hergé + The Adventures of Tintin (2011) movie.
