Again, I really wish DC would fucking SAY something about this. It's been three days of nothing. Tell us if we get the ending or not.

As am I. When the news dropped Wednesday it was a sad visit to my LCS. I was on the verge of dropping almost all the DC titles I typically get because my favorite title was being cut short.
I don't believe that boycotts work in these cases and, if I do drop a bunch of books (still very likely), it won't be to make a statement or to express anger. It would be from a loss of interest.
I was already on the verge of doing such a thing because I'm a DCU subscriber and I can wait a year to read most of the books on my pull list. My enthusiasm for a few titles, mostly King's Batman, was driving my eagerness to be up on most of what's happening in the DCU. Knowing this run is being cut off at the knees takes all the wind out of those sails.
I'm not going to make a move this way until I know what's really going on but I've been in a sort of mourning since Wednesday. Though picking up new comics every Wednesday is one of the highlights of my every week, I've never let what's happening in any comic book affect my mood. This is honestly the first time it's happened in almost 50 years. So yeah, I'm pretty hungry for some clarification.

Good news, everyone!
King and Clay Mann are teaming up for a twelve-issue Batman/Catwoman to follow up his early exit from Batman!
Mann doing "monthly" art. Hopefully with 6 months lead-in he can do the whole thing this time.

It's the Dynamic Duo! Batman and Robin!... and Red Robin and Red Hood and Nightwing and Batwoman and Batgirl and Orphan and Spoiler and Bluebird and Lark and Gotham Girl and Talon and Batwing and Huntress and Azreal and Flamebird and Batcow?
Since when could just anybody do what we trained to do? It makes it all dumb instead of special. Like it doesn't matter anymore.

This always seemed like the most likely solution. Well, except moving Batman (and 'Tec?) back to once monthly shipping. I guess DC hates making money or something.
Given the lead time King has, plus the mini, I assume the difference between the planned 105 issues and the 97 he'll be getting (plus maybe an annual) should let him tell something close to the story he wanted to tell about how he wanted to tell it.

Cool. I’ll support this for King (and Mann, of course!) but I meant what I said about canceling all my other DC pulls. I just can’t condone this kind of behavior towards creators in good conscience.
I’m sure that means nothing to Harras and co., but it means something to me lol.
