Talk:Ghost Stories (comic story)
One comic story?
From this interview, it does not seem to be at all the intention for Ghost Stories to be one singular comic story. They're trying to go more in the vein of classic superhero comic books:
- "We're telling this tale over a series of chapters, so I really wanted to make it feel as though we were getting a full series of adventures, with character arcs and an ongoing story, but with a series of separate 'episodes', too - changing foe, location and style."
As far as I'm aware, though, each of these episodes do not get names. GS 1, etc, are more for issue pages, rather than story pages, as well. Or at least that's how we've been doing things so far. Thoughts?

Arguments against separation
- Does anyone think it should stay on one page, and retain the comic story dab term?

This story is basically a modern Keys of Marinus; the characters go to a variety of places as part of a larger quest to gather a set of macguffins. I am strongly against splitting up issues of Ghost Stories, especially since they're so short. CoT ? 23:36, January 16, 2017 (UTC)
Unsure?
- What do you all think?
× SOTO (☎/✍/↯) 23:59, January 2, 2017 (UTC)- At the end of the first issue, we have a "to be continued". Also, on the credits page (within the comic itself) we get
- Ghost Stories
- Part One
- Giver this, I am inclined to say this is one story. However, it might be better to wait until further issues to give a final word on this.OncomingStorm12th ☎ 02:26, January 15, 2017 (UTC)
How many issues?
This article says 8, but Titan Comics in promoting the print version is saying only 4 issues. What's the correct number? I just bought #3 of the print version and as with the others there's no indication of a chapter break midway through. No one has bothered to create articles on the individual digital issues so I can't check that way. 23skidoo ☎ 23:42, June 7, 2017 (UTC)
