    Was hoping for a better solicit than that for both Avengers and New Avengers. Regardless, both will be on pull list.

    Avengers Undercover is ending. After only 10 issues which is a shame.

    What's with the .1 issue for Avengers? Seems like it should be an annual instead of a point one.

    No, they just spoiled that a new Euroforce team will be formed.

    I was thinking it could be that the .1 will stay in the current time while the normal Avengers goes forward with New Avengers.

    I don't read Secret Avengers but that's a cool cover.

    Avengers Undercover ends after only 10 issues? Well that sucks.

    Hopefully it ends well and we will see Hopeless work on more after this series.

    OH No! I can't believe Undercover! I love that series! Hopefully it's just morphing into something new.

    Regarding the end of Undercover (My favorite Marvel title), I have some thoughts that may have to do with a possible change of trend on publishing policies, and I would like to see your thoughts.

    Sad about Undercover, but it didn't have the hype going into it like Arena did, not to mention we only had the two Runaways as "star power." Hopefully the ending is good.

    I think each title gets a different mandate depending on how it is expected to perform or how long the writer can stay on. I am sure Marvel would still prefer the big names to commit to a couple years or more on a title. Riskier books are probably asked for 6 to 10 issue story arc and then see how it performs before extending that run by small amounts. Now, some people might think that some of these books are released as ongoings but are really always intended as limited runs, but I doubt that. If any of these books were selling 30K and not falling, they would probably not be ending.
