What were some of today's most popular titles or characters that were on the brink of cancellation at one point in their history? Focussing on titles or characters being cancelled that almost seem unthinkable these days.
Some examples are Detective Comics and Green Lantern in the 70s. Both went to bi monthly because of poor sales and were almost given the ax.
X-Men wasn't cancelled in the early 70s, but instead Marvel ran reprinted stories because of poor sales, and Daredevil was bi monthly and on the brink before Frank Miller came along.
Any others?
