Right, I get that. The first story arc of the comic book is "Nick thinks his mother's in trouble, takes Hank and Monroe to Europe to help her get rid of the coins. Shenanigans ensue." But that's my point, is that one of the currently ongoing plots on the show is stepping on the toes of that.

Well, I'm not expecting 'crossover' as such. And I'm not saying the show necessarily needs to reference the canon of the comic books or act as if the show's fans are reading the comic. It's just that it takes a bit of the enjoyment out of the comics (especially since the show writers work on them) if the TV show is going to basically render the comic's plots invalid. It's fun to imagine the comic revealing events that happen between episodes, so it's a bit of a wasted opportunity if the show is going to mess with that. (unless the comics aren't selling well and are going to be discontinued or something)
