    @justinsayne  Dude, you need to jump in.  It’s like an American Indian Sopronos!

    this was reaaaally good. if i had to make a guess at the game plan, this past year seems to be putting the pieces in place for the final 10-15 issues. i do hope we get some big narrative moves soon as while i’ve LOVED the more character based stuff of recent, i’m an READY for scalped to go for broke soon.

    love. this. series.

    I thought Aaron said somewhere that #36 or #37 was the halfway point. Is it really winding down in the next year-and-a-half or so? Been said plenty of places before by plenty of people, but… best book being made today!

    @jasonhart  I think it probably is winding down within the next year or so.

    yeah, that was just m guess. it just seems to be the logical progression of the story. it seems to be setting up the pieces for the finale action soon.

    @conor  Seriously, what’s the pull box gonna look like without a (mostly) monthly Scalped?

    So what’s the appropriate replacement when that day comes? Just started picking up Sixth Gun. Could be a contender…

    It’ll be a sad day when Scalped comes to an end. There really is nothing else like it in the (American) comics industry. It’s head and shoulders above other Vertigo titles, which is saying something. I notice Skydog compared it to the Sopranos, which is kind of close. Maybe more like a Coen Brothers movie – like No Country for Old Men? I think it would translate well into film or mini-TV-series if the right people got behind it.
