If we're talking about cool gimmick covers, Wolverine #50 had a sliced cover that was dope.
Yep! Aside from Giffen's art looking a little rough these days, the story was good. One thing to note (and I dunno how well DC advertised this) is it's set immediately after Invasion, so this is 80s DC continuity. The first issue was established the world and mystery, both in the main book and in Lemire's excellent Peacemaker back up. Lemire's art in the backups is great, some of the best I've seen from him in awhile.
The first issue is all but guaranteed to sell better than the last issue of the previous volume.
Even someone who tried the series once and dropped it might go "hmm, new status quo, let me see what that's about" and try it again.
And then drop it again, of course, because it's a c-c-comic book. *spits*
"Where do you live?"You poor soul. Allow me to enlighten you.
"On the edge."
Can this please be adapted into an 80s action flick?
You poor soul. Allow me to enlighten you.
Well, sales usually drop 50% between issue #1 and 2.
Ironheart is canned
Well, fuck. There's going to be youtube vids, aren't there?
Yeah, I stopped buying it a few issues back. I apologize.Ironheart is canned
Eve L. Ewing is doing a story for Incoming, so she's probably moving to a new book.Ironheart is canned
I just found a tiny little airplane bottle of rum in my desk.
Not enough to get me drunk enough to read the A.A. Jabrams comic.

She was on Champions LOL.
No the future is fucking 1992 to him.
Hope that's the case. I'm not a Riri fan, but god knows black women headlining solo books are hard to come by.
Yoshida considers himself the "fan's" EiC. This is from a Newsarama (I think) interview a few days ago? Which explains a lot of his moves.
Akira-san is there to entertain an audience of one. Just like Vince McMahon. Comics = wrestling.
I didn't know that, I don't read the book. Speaking of Valiant books, where is Lunchbox?
When was the last time someone here actually posted about reading a Valiant book?
Nah, it's clear he's doing things that dumb comic fans love cause they're dumb comic things. Akira has never shown even the slightest interest in Carnage.
If he was EiCing for one. You'd just have walls upon walls of Magik, Karma and Runaways.
I didn't know they still bothered to make comics. So not me.
I'mma be real with you, guy.
If Akira didn't love Runaways as much as he does. That book woulda been dead 15 issues ago.
honestly Yoshida viewing himself as that would explain why ASM is going in the trajectory it's going, especially #29
it makes me laugh seeing uh, KwannonPsylocke there. they finally made Betsy white again but you just know KwannonPsylocke is going to be the one that gets all the promotion.
Guess what survived the purge?
JSC: I am inevitable.

It's his baby, of course he's keeping it going but I get the feeling since the AoA Marvel stuff started becoming hits here, it's only a matter of time for he pulls a I DON'T LIKE YOU ANYMORE.
They have a reason to keep the comic going at least until the Hulu series gets canned.
If he was going to do that, he'd have done it months back. Runaways are still getting books, even when they sell what? 5 copies?
Then again, Daredevil is still going and his show got axed, same with Cloak and Dagger having a series but no book.
Runaways still has an active TV series on Hulu, so I'm sure that's a factor. The third season starts in December.
.........Daredevil is popular enough to sustain a comic without a show to support it. I may be wrong, though. Cloak and Dagger was on some channel no one gets anyway.
I posted if I should try Valiant a couple of days ago and had some replies.
they've cancelled and reupped books regardless of what's airing in conjunction with them.
And Runaways keeps going cause Yoshida can get away with going "Cult hit" and he can't do that with his dream book "Magik and Mirage are the best, fuck those other losers, look at those cool girls go."

Marvel aren't going to cancel freakin' Daredevil! The absolute worst that happens to a book like that is it ends up in a cycle of relaunches like what happened with Captain Marvel between DeConnick and Thompson.
No one's suggesting it's the only factor, they're saying it's one factor. It's part of the larger equation.
