  • (2) of a certain writer who enjoys to take years with plot points to unfold. I feel with your responses on here that you rather have people get trades or go digital if they can't afford paper books but a lot of people including you love how a comic feels in your handle and the ability to flip thru pages. Also when I buy Trades I usually order them before release thru Amazon which means my LCS gets snubbed If Marvel Editors control so much why not HELP writers with plot length? Thanks for ur time

    When you say “help” here, what you’re really asking is why editors don’t force the writers to truncate their stories to a length that would be more to your liking. And my response to that would be that the editors in question are likely just as happy with he length and the development of the storyline as the writers are–everybody works together, of course.

    As we’ve talked about in the past, all stories are different–there is not some one-size-fits-all length that works for all things. And if you find that a particular story or plot is taking too long to resolve, you can always walk away from it. But forcing writers to do Reader’s Digest versions of the stories they’re trying to tell doesn’t seem to be a good way to get the best work out of them.
