It's twenty minutes shy of eight hours, and then a 3 and a half hour companion interview was released not long afterward. But you're right: it's not at all boring at any moment. I need them to release it as a podcast so that I can listen to it in the car. I listened to it (at 1.5x speed) on my morning walks, so must have got the audio somehow. Can't remember if I downloaded it as an audio file, or just ripped it from the video though. This should sort you.

My collection is filed alphabetically, regardless of publisher. Also, I file numerical titles by their phonetic long names (e.g.-- 2000 AD is alphabetized under the "T's, 100 Bullets under the "O's" etc.).
That being said, in my collection book #1 is:
And last, book #14,723 is:

I need them to release it as a podcast so that I can listen to it in the car. I'm actually surprised that they didn't put an audio version into their podcast feed - they usually do so with their video interviews, esp. ones with high-profile comics personalities. Anyway, I used one of those online apps and converted it into an mp3 and then listened to it over the course of a few days.
Actually, I found the podcast version and listened to 40 minutes of it on my way home from work. The search feature on my app is wonky, so I started with part 3 (I think) which covered the sale of Marvel and New Universe. He was just beginning to discuss Steve Massarky when I got into the driveway.

Never heard of this before! I looked it up, and anything that pairs DeMatteis with Ploog sounds AMAZING. I'm going to have to check this out.

I know it got optioned and they found a book publisher to put out something, but I forget the details of it. -M

I picked up the comics years after they were originally released out of the $1 bins and just assumed it was something that never got a proper closure. Might have to look into that.

Only three of a projected 8 books were published, with the third only being released in the UK for some reason.

Action Comics #521 to New Mutants Annual #7, among the portion of my collection that actually organized into long boxes. I do have some comics in unorganized stacks.
It's largely alphabetical, but there are some exceptions within the alphabet and at the end. Spider-Man books come after after the end of the alphabet. X-books (X-Men, X-Factor, and New Mutants) come after the Spider-Man books. Annuals, minis, specials, etc. related to the X-books come directly after the main title they're most closely related to. For some reason, I have Excalibur in its regular place in the alphabet rather than with the other mutant books.
Within the main alphabetical section, there are exceptions, mainly to keep comics together by character. Detective comes right after Batman (even though I don't do the same with Action and Superman). Adventure Comics is mostly in its alphabetical place, except I have a handful of 1960s issues featuring the Legion that go in the LOSH section. There are other exceptions that are alphabetical by character rather than series title.
It might sound messy, but I have a spreadsheet with the contents of the long boxes, so it easy to look up.

Never knew there was a comic adaptation. Man, I loved that movie! Of course, if you know anything about stand at Rorke's Drift, you know that the cover subtext should have read "Hold and Die!", although the British casualties were minimal compared to the Zulu casualties. Great film though, with a strong early performance by Michael Caine.

The ordering in my longboxes is only roughly alphabetical and mostly organised into groups of comic titles by the lead character. But I have a spreadsheet listing my whole collection in strictly alphabetical order, so I can tell you it's...
