    Default Are Jim Lee's days numbered?

    This would not be very shocking if true. I'm surprised Lee wasn't sacked with Didio to be honest.

    I'm skeptical about the source, but while I do enjoy a number of DC titles, right now, DC really hasn't felt much like DC to me since he has taken an executive role. He really just seemed to take his very Image/'90s sensibilities and imprint them on DC and it just hasn't felt the same since. It would be one thing if he were actively trying to push new characters and kinds of books, but it's just been (arguably) the same old characters with a shinier coat of paint. Like he's trying to change things, but purely on a cosmetic level, not really changing anything at all.

    Wow, I had a whole lot more opinions on this than I thought I would.
    Keep in mind that you have about as much chance of changing my mind as I do of changing yours.

    Bunch of things fans wanted have returned under Lee. Sacking Lee won't bring back many more titles.

    Everyone's days are numbered. Some numbers are smaller than others and most don't know when it will be.

    The "source" is rather questionable, but I'd find it really funny if Lee is out and Javins stays. Her editorial can't even keep up with basic continuity and they gave her a freaking Inkpot award.

    DC Comics may as well just close up shop if that’s true.

    The source is an angry YouTube guy who spends his time complaining about minority groups in comics.

    I mean considering the state that WB is in, it's like saying "I'm going to sleep tomorrow"
    Me sleeping isn't going to prove I'm right, it's just certain that it'll happen.

    Saying the source is questionable is sugarcoating it.

    Source sounds like bullshit.

    The guy is one of those comicsgate idiots.

    I have watched some of his videos couple of months ago and everything he says here fits with what he said in those older videos. But this time he has a "source". So yeah, I'd put my money on him making up this source.

    I mean, yes.

    If he has no provable facts, can't/won't name a source and has no credibility of previously breaking news, then yes.

    Then I took two seconds to look at the channel and.. Oh god. Calling himself "Thinking Critical." Looking at the video titles and... they certainly paint a picture of the kind of person is, or at least the audience he's after.

    Yeah, that's 100% someone I'm going to dismiss whether he's right or not.
    "Has Sariel summoned you here, Azrael? Have you come to witness the miracle of your brethren arriving on Earth?"

    "I WILL MIX THE ASHES OF YOUR BONES WITH SALT AND USE THEM TO ENSURE THE EARTH THE TEMPLARS TILLED NEVER BEARS FRUIT AGAIN!"

    "*sigh* I hoped it was for the miracle."

    Dan Watters' Azrael was incredible, a constant delight and perhaps too good for this world (but not the Forth). For the love of St. Dumas, DC, give us more!!!

    Pretty much, comicsgaters are terrible people and shouldn't be given the time of day.
