Is the White Sand comic series related to the Sixth of the Dusk novelette? And if so, which one should I read first? This website's article for shards (at https://coppermind.net/wiki/Shard ) says that they both relate to the shard Autonomy, which is on the planet Taldain. But the short story collection Arcanum Unbounded has an introduction for Sixth of the Dusk, and it seems to imply it takes place on the planet Drominad, rather than Taldain.

This website: https://www.tlbranson.com/cosmere-reading-order-brandon-sanderson/ says Brandon Sanderson's website recommends reading The Alloy of Law before The Eleventh Metal. Why would he recommend that? It seems very strange to me. Does The Eleventh Metal have references to The Alloy of Law or spoilers for it? I thought The Eleventh Metal came first chronologically, and its introduction in the Arcanum Unbounded doesn't mention anything about The Alloy of Law. So that'd imply to me that The Eleventh Metal should be read first. I ask because I'm trying to decide in which order I should read them. For the record, I've already read the first Mistborn trilogy.
