More disappointing news for Roger Langridge fans: Following the news two weeks ago that Thor: The Mighty Avenger, the Marvel Comics title he writes with artist Chris Samnee, was ending with issue #8, Langridge shared today on his blog that his next arc on BOOM!’s acclaimed The Muppet Show Comic Book would be his last.
In his post, Langridge ascribes undisclosed personal issues as the reason behind the timing of his departure, but states, “I feel like I’ve done about as much as I can with the Muppet characters.”
Langridge’s last Muppet story is titled “The Four Seasons,” and will be released some time in 2011. The series started as a miniseries and 2009, and was later expanded into an ongoing, inspiring spinoff titles like Muppet Robin Hood and the currently unfolding Muppet Sherlock Holmes along the way.
