It needs to stop period. Every character has its fans even Wheelie.

Sounds like 5G related. Didio did want to turn Damian into the future Demon's Head to fight a grown up Jon for 5G iirc.

It just smacks of laziness and is more of a bait and switch.

The guy that pushed the dumb Inhumans strategy (Perlmutter)is the same guy trying to wreck Disney with Peltz and having him claim that Black Panther and Captain Marvel were unnecessary films because...

There's probably some context here that's missing. Sana Amanat was not working within the X-books, but iirc an editor working under the Spider-Man/Daredevil/Punisher stuff with Wacker. Like...

It totally is. Krakoa was a big ideas gamble with Hickman & co.. These new books are just throwing stuff at the wall to see what sticks. It's a very Brevoort thing. Other than going for Decimation...

It looks like it's from the Sub-Diego period since it's drawn by Chris Batista.

The Red Robin series was heavily integrated into the rest of the Bat-comics in that the lead Batman editor heavily emphasized tying all the books together as tie-ins and crossovers to Morrison's...

DC needs to stop trying to do their version of Ultimates. Other than All-Star Superman; 5G, Earth One and New 52 have all been busts.

The whole toxicity rule is probably bullshit that he made up for New 52 so that Scott Snyder couldn't use neither her or Stephanie Brown (who was also considered toxic by him and editorial). What...

There's no vision for the line like what Hickman had. This just feels like a reset back to the pre-Krakoa status quo except X-Men are scattered and oh the racists are still after them so it feels...

Covid layoffs and Didio's failed 5G resulted in people, both creators and editors, leaving. I think it's clear we are still dealing with the aftermath of these decisions. The only reason for example...

The original series wasn't built on plot twists. For example the Fourth Man reveal was telegraphed many issues ago that it was hardly a twist or reveal. Planetary was very much a worldbuilding series...

It's a cheap KO of the original series. It's pretty horrible given the writing team. Definitely not worth the money.

Scion - Ron Marz writing with Jim Cheung art, a techno-fantasy series
Sojourn - another Ron Marz title but with Greg Land on art, a LOTR-esque fantasy series
Meridian - Barbara Kessel with McNiven...

Don't set your expectations too high with Jackson/Lanzing. I think this entire run shows they are always in the shadow of far more skilled writers.

Also Mera and Arthur.

The current EiC of DC was one of Ellis's biggest boosters at Marvel during the 90s. Ruins, the Ellis Dr. Strange, Druid and Hellstorm all had her involvement as editor. It was a well known fact even...

Princes of Darkness

Dark Reign

I think that was for the New X-Men book that Jordan teased like in 2023 shortly before Brevoort replaced him.

I think they were useful as a tool for worldbuilding back at the start of HoX when the writers still cared about that stuff. Gillen used them for equal effect on Eternals for instance. But once...

ICv2 says it's a non-random sampling of 3000 stores:



I agree that relying on it is probably a mistake, but it's the best we have at the moment I think.

They were trumpeting it as their Saga or Sandman (shades of their Sleepwalker). So yes they were certainly expecting a sleeper hit and it didn't land. Much like how the PR for HoX/PoX expected it to...

It's non-random sampling of ~3000 stores iirc. In other words, it's only an approximation of real sales and will probably fall short due to its nonrandom nature.

If we take the data as gospel:
...

They can't. Because they have to constantly dial up the danger to mutant kind for the sales that the franchise ended up in the situation. But at the same time, this makes the dream unreachable and...
