So Is Cooke Done On The Spirit?

[Joker]

Cause if so, you know, I think I'm gonna drop it. So, is he done? Or is this just a break for an issue or 2 like he's done before?

 

[yenaled]

His last issue was 12.

Why would you drop a series before you've even read the new interpretation?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Seriously. I don't understand that. Cooke is really the absolute only thing that's enjoyable about the Spirit to people?

 

[The Leaguer]

I dropped the series after issue 3.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Philistine.

his writing is.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

But you don't even have other writers' work on the current Spirit comic to compare him to.

 

[GoldenAgeHero]

So? if he hears interesting things about the new creator he can always pick it back issues. whats the big deal?

When lots of people drop books because their favorite creators have moved on, they tend to get cancelled, whether the replacement is doing a good job or not.

I'm just not interested if it's not Cooke...he seemed to have a plan, and was going somewhere with the entire Octopus thing. I know he resolved the El Murte issue, but it still doesnt seem like an actual conclusion to where he was going. And the non-Cooke Spirit I've read (summer issue, holiday issue, etc.) just werent enjoyable to me. As GAH said though, if I hear good things, I might pick up back issues later.

oh well


and a book being good is subjective,i liked busiek's run on aquaman,hated tads the art didn't help either..dropped it.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

That's not subjective, that just means you have bad taste, which we already knew.

 

[GoldenAgeHero]

In the end the book got canned. I won!

 

[honest george]

I don't think The Spirit got cancelled; it's projected out through issue 17 I believe. Is there some news out there I missed?

 

[Anubis]

No, GAH's just being GAH.

 

[honest george]

No, GAH's just being GAH.

Oh, okay. Thanks. Not that I'm collecting them since Cooke left, I was just wondering if they had dropped the boom on the new team already.

Does anyone know when DC will publish the second volume of cooke's run?
