I can't recall any comment about this being the half way point, so much as we've established our characters enough to start causing a bit more trouble in the story.

Remender said recently that everything was plotted as 45 issues. It could continue after that, but it would be a different story by then.
I still enjoying this book quite a bit too. Whenever I feel my interest in it slipping away, an issue has a way of pulling me right back in. And I too am feeling some parallels between BS and Fear Agent in the way that things are moving along. Hoping this big twist that is coming will be for the better and not for the worse. Color me intrigued!
Ok, this is my first post in the forums and it's because of this book. Picked up the first two trades and am really digging it. This sort of sci-fi epic is right up my alley... and being new to comics, then I'm going to take your word on it that Fear Agent is a must buy (especially if it is as fun as this read). Thanks for the recommendation!
This series lost me, sadly. I really loved the first few issues and I identified with the main character and his martial struggles and idealism. I have no interest past his death. Rick Remender was one of my favorites for a while but he really hasn't been bringing it lately at all.
Deadly Class is his best work at the moment. Black Science is solid. I'm surprised at how well Low has been received.
Rick Remender is still in my personal top 5 of American comic book writers.
I had to stop buing his Marvel work (hope to catch up with TPB at some point), but I read all the titles you mention. DC in TPB, other two in issues.
I think I'd agree with you. I love BS but DC must be the best at the moment (I don't remember when I laughed so much reading a book). I was never madly keen on Toccini's art and I struggled with LOW over all. Deeper in the series however, my interest grows. I think it have something to do with the unknown... I'm facinated by discovering what is above the ocean...
Ps. I can't wait for Tokyo Ghost.
I caught up with ish #12 recently, it was unsurprisingly great. The twist was sort of expected given what others have mentioned about previous experience on FA.
I really like that they landed in a hi-tech Roman Empire world, this should make for a cool setting for the arc.
