And Batman Begins - what comic is that based on? And honestly, I don't think the author of the article is being quite as pedantic with the title as you might think. //\Oo/\\ More is changed in From Hell than in Spider-Man, though.

As an adaptation of the Death of Gwen Stacy, the first Spider-Man would be pretty piss poor, since it completely changes the characters and especially the ending.

I think it's more of an adaptation than X-Men 2 is of "God Loves, Man Kills." And I'd put American Splendor pretty high on that list.

You could argue that the first Spider-Man has bits of "The Death of Gwen Stacy," but it was more like two story beats.
