I agree that the Spawn comic books are better done than the movie, but then again the only constraints in the comic book are the artist's imagination and ability -- it's a lot harder to actually do a film and marry together live elements, CGI, foley and sound spfx, etc.A lot harder to get the money to make an $80 million dollar mainstream film for a character that has gone to hell too!
Spawn vs. Matrix - point is, any good SF coming out of hollywood these days is definitely comic book inspired. Too bad "graphic novels" are still considered kid stuff, just like bicycles are generally considered to be toys rather than alternate transportation.
Patlabor vs. Ghost is a tough call - both are excellent, though I prefer Patlabor myself.
