With today’s strip, the the longest storyline I’ve done for Mad Science so far comes to an end. Where normally my story arcs were 8 to 12 strips long on average, this one has been going for a whopping 39 installments. This brings me to a point that has been kind of bugging me since halfway through this story, and I’m looking for your feedback on the matter; was this storyline too long?
Don’t get me wrong; the 2012 storyline is my personal favourite so far. I’ve really enjoyed both writing and drawing it and I think especially the artwork improved a lot over the course of this one, but with only two updates a week, I think the story lines can sometimes feel a little drawn out when you’re following them. I mean, this one started in April and only came to a conclusion in October – it lasted almost half a year!
I guess that I already came to the conclusion myself that shorter story arcs (I’m thinking that 8 to 12 comics is ideal) work better with my update schedule, but I’m very interested to hear if you agree with me.
