Because in terms of big Event series specifically, those kinds of stories tend to perform better and be received better when they are delivered more rapid-fire and in a shorter duration of time. And in 2013, there are typically very few artists who can deliver that amount of work that quickly, and not at the level that you’d want on an Event book. It seems somewhat counter-intuitive to me as well, but I’m an old guy–and there’s no arguing with the result. You guys have illustrated with your dollars and your walking shoes that you’d rather have a series come out more rapidly than have it be produced by the same artist, so long as the quality of all of the artists involved is high.
