Abandoned Series: Comics
Continuing from the abandoned series: fantasy, here are some comic series I’ve abandoned. (This will be a LOT shorter, because comics aren’t my primary genre).
For the sake of simplicity, I’m NOT going to list a series I started and then gave up on because the series wasn’t for me.
What I liked about the first volumes were the stories told by the various patrons of the House of Mystery. The subsequent volumes spent more and more time on the Fig story line, which I didn’t like nearly as well.
I love Fables so very much. And I hate Jack of Fables to almost the same degree.
I really like Mike Carey‘s writing, and I enjoyed the character of Lucifer in Sandman, but I just couldn’t get into the comic.
This was one of my favorite series, until Brian K. Vaughn left. Then I just didn’t like it at ALL anymore, which I found VERY sad.
Huh. Guess I haven’t given up on that many long-running series. Most of them were read one and didn’t care to go on.
