I am such a sucker for anything FS that I will probably stick with it and finish reading all of the comics, that's just the way I am...apart from the fact that I hate leaving things half way finished as it were...
the main problem I foresee is the emotional detachment! I know it sounds crazy but one of the reasons I absolutely frelling loved the show WAS because of the emotions it elicited whether they'd be happy, sad (more often than not) or comical, so seeing these very same characters diminished somehow or given a shoddy treatment (Chiana for one by the sounds of things!) makes me shiver.
You know, I realise that obviously the comics medium cannot even come close to a TV series or movie but to see my (disclaimer: characters belong to the Jim Henson Company and they are not mine or yours or anybody else's ;)) characters fizzle into something that should not ever be is disheartening....on a side note, I think FS is the only show I have ever watched in which ALL of the main characters captured my heart in one way or another - that had never happened before and it hasnt happened since and for that I will be forever grateful to the creators of it(end of side note!)
I will soldier on and probably agonise a little and if it gets really bad I may have to go and get hypnotised into believing the comics never happened! :)
I will keep you posted on how I my reading goes...you brought this upon yourself, my dear ADS!
