And, realistically, Hanley's probably right that "it's highly unlikely that [sales] will improve" for the run; even if Finch's writing noticeably improves while she's still on this book, I doubt a lot of the fans who have left (or will have left by then) will give the run a second chance.

I gave Azzarello's run a 2nd chance, although it still failed to impress me. If I can give a WW writer a 2nd chance after that, I think just about anyone could. All it takes is the right story.
