In my opinion, it's pretty good. The comic adaptation of 'Heir to the Empire' stays true to the main plot and keeps the essence of the original work. However, there are a few minor details that could have been handled better.
I'd say it's a mixed bag. Some aspects of the 'Heir to the Empire' comic adaptation are excellent, like the art and the portrayal of certain characters. But there are also some parts where it strays a bit from the original and loses some of its charm.
The Heir was not a remake or an adaptation of a novel. It was a TV series adapted from a web novel.
I think it is. Smallville managed to capture the essence of the comic book characters and their storylines quite well.
The characters included the male lead, Lu Yixuan, the female lead, Zhao Xin, and the female lead, Ge Ning. "The Heir of the Business Empire" by Nan Mengxiang. It was an urban/business novel with management, scheming, strategy, and business elements. It was completed and could be enjoyed without worry. [User recommendation: Tiansheng Group's heir, Lu Yixuan, started as a small employee, reformed the long-standing abuses, disintegrated factions, reorganized the industry, and sought to go public…Leading the family business to glory step by step!] ――― Fighting for power, waiting for an opportunity to strike!

The manga 9981 was not adapted from a novel but from a Japanese manga of the same name. The manga was first released in 1996 by the manga artist Nobuyuki Fukumoto. Although comics and novels have the same name, they are two different art forms. The storyline and character settings of comics are different from novels.
It's quite impressive. The comic book version manages to capture the essence and key moments of the story well.
One special thing is its unique art style which brings the story to life vividly.
I'm not entirely sure without reading it more closely, but there's probably a central hero figure.
It depends on the specific comic and the source material. Sometimes it's a direct and faithful adaptation, making it canon. But in other cases, there could be significant changes that might make it not strictly canon.
No, Popeye wasn't the first. Before Popeye, there were other comics that were adapted into different forms. The history of comic adaptations goes way back and Popeye was just one among many.
