    Ok, so you're exactly the reader I want to engage on this. Now that we are 11 issues in, how do you feel about the length of this mini series? Is 12 issues just right? Too long? Not long enough? I'm legit curious as to what other fans are getting put of Far Sector.
    So far, I'd say just right. It took me 3-4 issues just to get used to the backdrop and manner of speaking of the various aliens. I had to digest the environment before I could even start getting into Jo as a character. I could read issue #12 and think, "There needed to be 2 more issues" or "She could have wrapped that up in 10 instead of 12." However, Jemisin is a novelist, so she probably had a good idea of start/middle/end before she put fingers to keys.

    • You can tell almost any comics story in four issues, if you don't pad it out with big panels and such.

      • I prefer the traditional three, without cliffhanger end-panels. Or double-spread panels.

        • I'm glad that I got my Far Sector #1 set of 3, main cover & 2 variants, when the set first hit the market. I think I paid $25 for all 3. I've seen three sets sell on Ebay this year, the last of which was $89. Unfortunately, I might not be able to snag the 2nd print, a rare one, for a decent price.

                    If you get the time, check out our 200th pod with Darryl Banks in the Vol 3 section that I posted. The amount of fanboy energy that I was trying to contain could have powered New York for a month.

                    • This isn't news per se, but an interesting new political discussion. Apparently at least one pundit uses the term "Green Lantern Theory" to describe when a politician's career is adversely affected by their constituents believing they can will anything:

                      The Green Lantern Theory Destroyed Jimmy Carter’s Presidency. Now It’s Hitting Joe Biden

                      • I just thought this was so random, but it looks like the GL book was included with others because of crime stories. Still . . .

                        A mac & cheese cookbook, the Green Lantern and other books banned in N.J. prisons

                          Wow...banning books on Marvel and home repair too. I'm not sure that I see the therapeutic value there.

                            • I'm looking forward to the new series! I haven't been so active on this forum, but maybe things will pick up with the new book (even got myself a new pfp in honor Hal's new/old look)
