That said—in reading the comic panel-by-panel, I think that, while it would be challenging, it could be done. It would be a confusing movie, but one that I think people would watch and rewatch to better understand it.

For instance—the scene in which the Question is investigating Nora's murder, AKA this one:


You wouldn't be able to have translated into film exactly like in the comic. The comic makes use of its space too well to do that. However, if we were to rearrange the movement of the characters and the placement of some of the object, such that this could be read like this—

... My God...

MORRISON!!

But thats what I meant with that its unfilmable. You cant replicate it you just cant because film and comic are so different mediums. You can make a Pax Americana film but you cant make a film out of Pax Americana if that makes any sense

Morrison you freakin genius!!!
