An open note to the writers of ‘Lost’

lostcast-9319870Congratulations on your return to the small screen tonight. It’s been a while, and I know many have been awaiting your return. However, a cautionary note:

In my job here at ComicMix, I spend a lot of time talking pop culture with a number of comics professionals. I recently found myself in a discussion with a writer about Lost, and he said, quote, “I used to follow the show, but they just had too many dangling plot threads and unresolved story elements– I stopped watching.”

Guys, when Chris Claremont says your series has too many dangling plotlines, you have a problem.

I mean, add a few super powers, and… hmm. Add superpowers to a convoluted plotline… didn’t I just get something about that? Why, yes I did:

Consider yourselves warned.

(Incidentally, Chris Claremont has a newly redesigned web site and blog, although he’s still working out the bugs of the migration and some of the redirects are still touchy. Go over and take a look, show him some love.)
