Why would anyone think WW will be cancelled?

 

[Darthphere]

Because theyre stupid?

25000-15000 /= 20000.

 

[Darthphere]

Dude, you lost the argument big time, move on.

Looks like Firestorm is sinking.

 

[Darthphere]

Yup, fact is Checkmate even with its drops, its still selling about double the amount of issues Firestorm and Manhunter are.

Manhunter for August: 128 Manhunter 25 $2.99 DC 15,100

The impression I'm getting is that Dan likes the series, so he's been keeping it going when it should have been cancled. I think he's out of touch with the readers since he wanted to kill off Nightwing and Nightwing has over twice the sales of Firestorm.

Killing Nightwing seems to be more of a creative/shock decision than a "nobody likes Nightwing, let's kill him!" decsion to me.

Because theyre stupid?

But why haven't been owning them fast and furiously?

 

[Darthphere]

I cant own them all CConn.

 

[Assassin]

I doubt he'll join the JLA as long as Meltzer's onboard. Red Tornado already fits his outsider role well enough, and you know Meltzer's never gonna let go of RT. He's like the golden child of Meltzer's JLA.

he only wrote the first 12 issues homeboy, why cant Martian Manhunter come back at #13?

 

[KingOfDreams]

Marvel's "The Thing" sold well and was still canned.

I thought it was cancelled because it wasn't selling well. Why else would you cancel as book anyway?

 

[CConn]

I cant own them all CConn.

And why can't you?

Because of this lousy attitude of yours.

 

[Darthphere]

And why can't you?

Because of this lousy attitude of yours.

I will try harder. Just for you.

 

[Assassin]

I dont like the fact that a Monthly book is now a Bi monthly just so they can get a famous writer to write it (WW)

 

[Darthphere]

Get over it.

Like i said in a diffrent thread, you're a ****ing troll

I'm getting tired with the ""Creative shock thing" it's being used so often it's no longer creative or shocking. DC's lust for killing off characters is getting tiresome.

i dont care what they call trolling, reading the last post and posting your opinion on that last post that has nothing to do with the thread is ****ing trolling

According to Superherohype FAQ's its not, and my post was in response to all your posts, not just the last one you made.

Roger, seriously, I was joking to Q when i called him a Tard, but you have no life. In every one of your posts that are off topic all you do is you try to side with the popular guy and you try to make a witty comment so you can be in the lime light for 3 seconds. Its pathetic, i feel sorry for you, and you can have your glory moment on the internet. But remember it doesnt change your status in real life.

LOL! Hilarious. I hardly side with the popular view on things or with the "popular guy" honestly, you need to lighten up and not take things so seriously. And the only reason were off topic is because you drove it off topic so don't put that **** on me.

My comment was about WW and thats intopic, thats the reason why i dropped it, the story isnt that good for me to wait every 2 months to get a piece of a story. your get over it comment was off topic, Roger
