I got a copy off of Ebay but won't get it until this weekend.
I got mine on Wednesday. It's no better or worse than anything from before... meaning, it's great. Seriously, that is how you do a comic adaptation of a book. Artwork has stayed consistent throught the series as well.
I was wondering if there will be another arc after No Man's Land for The Stand series? There is only one more issue left of No Man's Land and I don't think that will be enough to finish the story of The Stand.
Spoiler:
I think that The Stand series needs another five issue arc. 05-28-2011 03:13 PMAdumbrosi think they need to leave it the fuck alone. it drives me absolutely insane when authors destroy their shit, turn it into caricatures, just to gain capital off the popularity of CHARACTERS, who don't, haven't, and never will exist. it's about time both authors AND readers recognized the fact that it is literally IMPOSSIBLE to tell the complete and unadulterated story of EVERYTHING, unless your everything is so elementary that a newborn wouldn't find the pages worthy of pissing on. :pullhair: 05-29-2011 02:55 PMpixiedark76Umm I think you are missing the point entirely. all I asked if there will be another arc after "No Man's Land" Since I am reading the book "The Stand" I want the comic to tell the story the whole way through in a decent way. I don't want them to cram the story into one last issue of "No Mans Land"
this has absolutely nothing to do with "authors turning their work into caricatures" blah, blah blah. What is the point of having "The Stand" as a comic if it does not finish the entire story of the book.
I don't want the comic to tell about everything. the events I mentioned are key to the ending and proper telling of "The Stand." I just want the story of the comic to equal the story in the book. 05-29-2011 03:13 PMCyberGhostfaceThere's another arc called "The Night Has Come" coming. Here's the first cover.
Spoiler: 05-29-2011 06:42 PMAdumbrosI didn't miss the point at all. there never was a need for the comic. it was nothing but a way to cash in on the previous success of a storyline that was put to rest over thirty years ago. 05-29-2011 09:59 PMAri_RacingThe Stand - The night has come (Starting in August)The Stand - The night has come

There was a cool Rich Bachman cameo in the second last issue. I'd post the image but I'm not sure if that's copyright violation.
