[QUOTE="Jedi_Solo, post: 4328404, member: 40245"] There are two reasons. 1) I almost quite Lost multiple times over those two seasons. Each time I almost quit the next episode actually advanced the plot in a way that (at least at the time) seemed to be a major advancement. Some times it turned out to be a big advancement and some times it didn't. Either way it was enough for me at the time. 2) Time passage issues. The last couple of weeks have been very good for new issues to be posted. That said, his record in the past of posting new comics has been spotty so the number of issues doesn't have that much to say about how long it's been other than it's been at least 100 days (if the comics had been daily). I can easily wait three months; it's been longer than three months. The copyright to the two issues I listed above are 2007. That means that at best it has been almost six months since the two groups have split. There was the time of Burlow's injury so it has been longer than six months but I'm not sure how long it has been. I don't have the search feature so I can't find the thread saying they were posted so I can't find the actual dates of those comics. TV seasons (usually) have the sweeps episodes be major events so you at least get meta-plot advancement every few months. Edit to add: I'll admit, when this ends up in book form the pacing might seem just fine to me. It seems to be greatly dragged out (to me) at the moment in part because of the rate of issues being posted. [aside] Heck, I watch Law & order in part to get away from the massive metaplots on TV today [/aside] [/QUOTE]
