The story (about how Redlance "earned" his name) is given in the novelization
of the first five issues, called "Journey to Sorrow's End".  I'm not sure if
it is still readily available.  Does anyone know if a second novel is to be
made (or released)?

I agree; no one draws elves quite like Wendy.  Has she been too busy drawing
the bridging art for the Epic series (the reprinting)?

                    "If you have four fingers, and you take away one,
                          what do you have?"
                                                "Blood!"
(Moriarty, if you can identify where this came from, it's yours.)
