Such technical aspects don't need 100% accuracy. The pic looks much cooler with him running and finger on the trigger.

I dunno. To me it's a lot cooler to see Wolverine carry a katana like a samurai than it would be to see him swing it around like a claymore.
A little accuracy helps increase the appreciation of a comic book. I don't expect it to be true to life.. if I did, it'd be hard to get past the four-color costumes and small-yet-identity-consealing masks. Likewise, I wouldn't expect a cartoony comic, like say Sonic the Hedgehog, to have a remotely accurate depiction of the world, but a comic that presents itself as being grounded in reality, like say Captain America, should have a little more attention to detail.
Does this make me not want to buy or read the comic? Of course not. Is it reason enough to dislike the new look? Heck no.
I'm just sayin' a little more attention to detail would be nice.
