When Elin brought it up on the old Radio message boards, she mentioned that
the response to the trib book was so large that they couldn't find room for
all of it. They would have loved to have made the book twice as large, but
there's a limit to how big you can make a comic before the production time
starts to increase, and they wanted to get the book out as fast as
possible. And trade paperbacks take even longer than comics. It would have
been great to have come up with two issues, but it really was best not to
split the focus of getting Jim the funds among too many projects.
Not that you couldn't try to come up with a second benefit book for him
_now._ You've proven yourself as capable of successfully putting together
a comic book, maybe you can get a second one together that he could benefit by.
