    On one hand I’d like to see a more accurate take without the Disney ending. On the other hand, despite not being all that faithful to the book. The Disney version is iconic and nostalgic for so many reasons.

        I’m not sure. Anything is possible, but what I remember of the book is that Roger didn’t survive the start of it, and was technically dead throughout most of the book.

          Basically yes. Though the book isn’t canon to anything but itself. Wolf went on record to say that he prefers the movie’s storyline. So the two sequels and the prequel are more related to the movie than the original book.

            Interesting. I may have to check it out at some point. The original concept of cartoons being able to create temporary doplegangers to perform stunts for them was an interesting idea. But a bit of a tenuous construction. Over the general pop culture perception of them being rubbery and nigh invulnerable like the tick.
