Burlew is still being a prick; it has been ages since one of the most awesome moments in fantasy comics, and he has used every cheap annoying trick he has to avoid writing what must come next, resorting to illness and gratuitous fight scenes. When will the agony end

Again that subject, which really deserves a whole discussion of its own - a work of art in one medium based on another medium - to which medium does it owe its allegiance? Does it have to work according the rules of both to be really good? And if the rules clash, which gets precedence?
I can see a point in demanding from a work of art based on the premise of a game to be loyal to the game mechanism, meaning it should be not only a good comic (or whatever) but also a good game. But I can also imagine cases in which this would not be the case. Sometimes, possibly, good art might require a bad game.
One has to wonder, though, what would be the basic features of a good game comic which also depicts a good game. There should be some basic rules for something like that.
