    It's sadly for the best because too many FOLKS especially those who don't even read DC or Marvel use those list as weapons to attack certain creators and books of POC, LGBTQA and some females. As some proof nobody is buying a book that feel should never exist in the first place.

    And those lists were always book SHIPPED to a store.
    And there is another factor-not every book listed in Preview Worlds is a title that can be ordered by stores.

    Static's Arika Homage cover-that cover did not appear in any Final Order List of any store in my city.

    And last factor-DC and Marvel ONLY cares about PRE-ORDERS. They don't care how many copies sell to a person or how many rot on a shelf.

    So while that might work for Bat Jesus. That doesn't help JSA, Blue Beetle, Waid's Teen Titans, Jon Boy Kent and the Milestone books.
    Because both of those tend to be books that sell out whatever copies and that's it. First come first serve and wait on the trade.

    It's not that they are not selling-they don't warrant large orders. Which is what DC wants.

    Meanwhile at Boom and Image-they put X numbers and then reprint. You can't tell me some of those books warrant 5-7 reprints. No they are doing low print runs.

    Sorry. That was bad.

    There needs to be some kind of clean break to clear out the unresolved plot teases once and for all

    While he'd be good, I do think they'd be best off relaunching with a new #1 at this point.

    I dunno.

    I remember when we have OYL. Publicly available information allowed us to get an inkling into DC's mindset. We could see, at the time, that Cassandra Cain's Batgirl outsold Firestorm, Hawkman and Catwoman, but they came back and Cass didn't, demonstrating a clear agenda on the part of DC.

    Now, we have no information to hold Marvel or DC accountable.

    Exactly! It hasn't even been a damn JSA book. Put this book out it's misery.

    Well seeing that there are 3 new Ghost Machine series were launched this week, that were all written by Geoff Johns, it's clear the JSA series is not a priority to Johns. The Justice Society needs a new writer who has time and care for them, that makes their book and fans a priority.

    When was the last time a DC book had a fill-in writer? It would have been nice to have some one-offs by others during the months Johns' issues missed.

    Another Geoff Johns book, I think - Shazam. There was two filler issues made, one of them was released in the middle of the Seven Magic Lands story, and the other was the final issue.

    I'm starting to think that by the time JSA #12 is released, the Legion of Super Heroes time will no longer be in our future, but present day.

    Jeremy Adams and Marco Santucci are working on a JSA tie-in issue for the Absolute Power event.

    Absolute Power: Task Force VII #3 ends the month with a bang on July 31, as the Amazo robot Jadestone absorbs the powers of the Justice Society of America. But after being compromised by Green Lantern Alan Scott’s willpower, Jadestone is faced with the possibility of making its own decisions. Will it continue to execute Waller’s orders or exercise free will, as the remaining JSA members attempt a rescue to free their teammates and escape to the Tower of Fate? Find out in this story from Green Lantern writer Jeremy Adams and artist Marco Santucci.

    I could get behind them as a new creative team for a JSA book.

    Has issue 12 even been solicited? I've lost track of what has come out, what hasn't and what's been re-solicited.
