    Bye bye Jane and Andi I guess, their books are probably cancelled by the end of their next arcs.

    I think part of it is even Marvel recognizes there's a limit to the market and flooding even more books doesn't contribute to anything. The issue isn't the comic book reader's purchasing, but the comic book shop. If they flooded the market, shops would have to buy the books on the off chance someone chooses that one (as opposed to some other) in a very crowded market. This is an enormous expense that could cause these shops to go under. Interested parties can still buy them digitally and it'll save Marvel costs on printing even if there's likely a lower return. Plus, I suspect these are books they've already paid for so it's a sunk cost anyway.

    Though some of the Empyre tie-ins have apparently been scrapped. Surely work on those should've started before April?

    Well remember: BC reported that Marvel asked several creators to stop work on a lot of their books when all this began. So it doesn't entirely surprise me if they have pages that are ready but don't feel comfortable moving forward with them in print or digital.

    -The number of people unemployed keeps going up. As that continues to grow, people will have less money to spend on things like comic books. If they know they will make less money, they will need to adjust to make up for that.

    -Every week Marvel wasn't putting out comics during the shutdown they were losing money. They need to offset that loss somewhere. Spending more money to print low-selling titles won't offset that loss.

    Exactly. I'm willing to bet that if Outlawed #1 hadn't come out in March, they would have scrapped the entire event altogether.

    I think Marvel is Focussing on the top titles like X-men and Spider-man and the rest. Like the importent titles and doing away with mins and low selling titles. I hope in the coming months it would be as it was before.I dont know if that will happen

    Power Pack and New Warriors may well have been KOed.

    Magnificent Ms. Marvel #14 will need a digital release by July 15th (current schedules only go up to the end of June), or there'll be a continuity error in Captain Marvel #17 which is out on that date - namely, Kamala running around when she shouldn't be. Outlawed ended with her unconscious in the hospital, a cliffhanger that was due to be resolved in her next solo issue. She should be off the board until that issue is published.

    Champions of course also can't start until that Ms. Marvel issue is published - and it'll probably be cut to one arc. Miles Morales #17 is out in print on June 10th, but the lack of later resolicits makes me suspect that, as well as Ms. Marvel and Champions, will be digital after that. That's just a guess though. I wish they'd tell us which books have been cancelled and which are just waiting for a release date!
