"'That was its fate,' he explained."

From the blog of Paul Pope, where you'll find the rest of the page:

I wanted to try applying the lessons learned from the Wednesday Comics experience to a different subject ... I find that with the format of Wednesday Comics ..., one must condense the plot and action to the briefest yet most vivid bursts of information available ... The Wednesday Comics single page format forces the artist to create a story unit which may well be part of a larger storyline, however it still must be able to stand alone.

And no, I don't think there's going to be an awesome Dune comic written and drawn by Mr. Pope, although I wish there were.
