I really loved the majority of changes that took place in the series to adapt the comic.

The fight scene is the most obvious of them, while in the comic it was a surprise attack that functioned as a mystery hook, in the series it was simply a too brutal fight that shows that the guardians were a threat to Ominman

Meanwhile there were other changes like the food scene where Mark says that he has powers, I remove the "Great, now now pass me the potatoes" part to show that Omniman is worried about that since he knows what he should do.

And I love the approach they're taking on an inexperienced Mark especially because of the scene where he fails to save an old lady from the Flaxian invasion and feels guilty for not succeeding.

​

They really adapted the comic very well.
