Justice League Dark and Etrigan...because I like them so much and that's how they like to stick it to me!

I'm slightly humbled by the Legion's rankings on the Top 100 list. It sold great compared to how the title(s) normally sell which is nice, but I'm worried attrition may be high. Hopefully it can hold its own during the first wave of cuts.

Good for DC.

I hope Legion Lost can holds its own too... I'm sure the 7 Legionnaires' fates will be handled properly if it goes, but I don't even want to think about that eventuality yet.

With Giff taking over BOTH Green Arrow and Superman, I seriously doubt he will have time to continue co-writing and drawing OMAC. I am now convinced OMAC will end with # 6.

They've said it's not in any danger and is plotted out until #16. Should be interesting to see.

teeheehee... # 83-100 are all Marvel Comics...

Well, even with titles not being as high as DC wants, there's nothing the New 52 # 1s can be called other than a resounding sales success for the company.

Yeah, they seem real committed! Apparently no DC book is in danger of being cancelled yet after month #1 sales. There is a figure internally they have as a trigger but it has not been hit.

Sept was clearly a resounding success. It'll be fascinating to see if Oct is too and if any series *gain* sales. I can't help but think several will.

Didio also said that OMAC could loose a bit over half the first issue readership and still be a success according to their projections of what the books need to do.

Makes me very happy.


Active LMB character is still Beast Boy.

Fantastic news!! DC must be rolling in it, and I'm betting we see some big-time Marvel creators jump ship for DC soon! That would be quite the reversal of the general rule that DC finds talent that Marvel then steals.

I'd give my left...kidney to see Coipel back on LSH. Not that that would be part of his contract negotiations, just sayin'.

Now, I will need to study the list to discuss this more, but just off the top of my head I am throwing out there:


MR. TERRIFIC

FRANKENSTEIN, AGENT OF SHADE

OMAC

BLACKHAWKS

BATWING

After I study the list, I'll be back with more predictions of doom!

OMAC looks like another safe bet for an early grave.

I will miss OMAC, but it is now fodder for my Giffen bind.
