You understand that the point and spirit of a story isn't contingent on the actual characters? What matters is the themes of the story.
For instance, the Hulk clan can easily become a redneck clan who maintains the characteristics of the source characters. Or be omitted altogether.
I mean... how many times have we seen examples of adaptations working with what the studios had the rights to and adjusting as needed?
Old Man Logan, the story, is more important than certain character as they were in the comic. I'd argue that all story's can be retained despite having characters be who they were originally. It's how Shakespeare's stuff get retold without strictly keeping those original characters.
