#1. Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter)

Unlike the pink-haired, lively Jewel we saw in the comics, Jessica Jones on the series is a kind of dark character who prefers black clothes.#2. Arrow (Stephen Amell)

Billionaire Oliver Queen aka Green Arrow in the comics is like an homage to Robin Hood, while his on-screen version is much more serious with darker costumes that contain shoulder pads and arrows on his back.#3. Daredevil (Charlie Cox)
Source: Marvel
Before growing into our beloved vigilante, Matt Murdock aka Daredevil used to wear only plain black clothes, which is absolutely nothing like his original comic version.#4. Aquaman (Jason Momoa)

There's no denying that Jason Momoa did a great job as Aquaman, but he looks way too different from the short-haired blonde with orange scales we see in the comics.#5. Beast (Nicholas Hoult)

The cinematic Beast has not only more clothes but also more powers than his original character.#6. Kingpin (Vincent D'Onofrio)

It's no secret that the comic Kingpin cares a lot about fashion, but when he appears on the big screen, the infamous villain seems to be much tamer and simpler.#7. Starlord (Chris Pratt)

Peter Quill aka Starlord in the comics is a skinny, blond cop who is kind of immature and impulsive. Both his appearance and his story are different from the famous guardian we know in the movies.#8. Superman (Henry Cavill)

In this case, we're glad that red underwear is nowhere to be seen. Superman's suit in "Man of Steel" is also more leathery and mature.#9. Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen)

Wanda Maximoff in the comics is older and also bolder when it comes to revealing costumes.#10. Tulip O'Hare (Ruth Negga)
Source: DC
Ruth Negga is an amazing actress and her performance as the protagonist of "Preacher" was truly fantastic. However, her looks and vibe are nothing like the original one.#11. The Owl (Bob Gunton)
Source: Marvel
The Owl in the comics looks a lot like Wolverine, while the one in the TV series looks just like... well, human.#12. Kilgrave (David Tennant)

Just like Jessica Jones, villain Kilgrave in the TV show was also changed dramatically compared to the original comics.#13. Rogue (Anna Paquin)
Source: Marvel
Rogue in the comics is a daring, fierce middle-aged woman who made her debut as a villain. In the movies, her iconic yellow-green uniform was replaced by a normal black suit, and her powers and mindset were changed a lot as well.#14. Vision (Paul Bettany)
Source: Marvel
Like Rogue, Vision in the comics usually appears in green and yellow. However, in the TV show, the filmmakers have turned this alien into a tech-supporting character with a more armored look.#15. Quicksilver (Aaron Taylor-Johnson)

Pietro Maximoff in the comics is older with a totally different suit. He is also skinnier too.Share this article
