While most of the comic book fanfare adapted for movies and TV usually involves superheroes, Netflix doesn’t mind focusing on subversions within the medium. The streamer has had success with DC’s Vertigo imprint, opting to do something more than just tell stories about capes and villains. Sandman and Lucifer are some examples, focusing on the mystical and heavenly realms, and humanity’s moral flaws.There’s also Sweet Tooth, which was geared more towards kids as it centered on animal hybrids on the run. Now, Netflix is diving into Bodies, adapted from an ethereal procedural as told by Si Spencer, Dean Ormston, Tula Lotay, Meghan Hetrick, and Phil Winslade in 2014. This eight-episode series deals with a body that’s been found across four different time periods, entrapping various detectives in mind-bending investigations. As expected, many changes are made to tailor Bodies to the small screen, which do make the show a lot better in terms of logic and emotional resonance for the current landscape.In the time-spanning Bodies, the future is a sleeker yet realistic time period, with the only fancy technology being a brace that helps Detective Maplewood walk. Here, the cult has a lot more control over society through capitalism, the military and various corporations. Notably, the show does not tackle the corpse that predated the 14th century. The comic did this to add more intrigue to the body and the cult invested in it.
