Great point, Tim. Captures well the trouble DC finds itself in in the bigger picture. I like some of the new characterizations, but as a whole it does have that unmoored feeling you're talking...

Brian Wood.
*drops the mike, walks off*
It's not Battle Royale with superheroes, it's Battle Royale with children. Super powers or not, that's a pretty different thing.
Red Raven as "an established character" -- in the DC Universe, maybe, but in Marvel, not so much.
I'd have him can the series on the basis that it was a risky-bold premise from the get go, and recent events in our country make it untenable to go forward with right now.
Some people are...
Axel, I love what you're doing, love Marvel NOW. Great job.
I am concerned about Avengers Arena. It's very hard to swallow a book about kids getting murdered post-Newtown. I understand the story...
Jonathan, Thanks for doing this. Very cool of you.
I'd be interested to hear a bit about your process in building these amazing narrative architectural structures. When you were thinking about...
Monthly Marvel titles have not been $3.99 for 5 years. Special issues, mini-series, yes, but monthlies -- not true.
I'm glad to hear they think their sales have stayed strong, but I have a hard...
Same with the X-Men with Xorn and Zorn.
Also, on Wood's point about Kitty's costume, I don't know, I liked the spooky Kitty Pryde costume. I get why Wood has changed it, but I thought it had a...
I really love DMZ and I've signed on for Massive, but I just gave up on Ultimate X-Men. Less a reflection on Brian than the whole run so far. Too much money for too little story -- a title to browse...
Axel, Just wanted to say thanks a lot for updating your subscription lists. I've been asking about it in this forum and elsewhere for over a year, and I'm glad to finally see the full set of Ultimate...
I thought the same. Made me nervous...
The Uncanny Avengers idea is pretty hard to imagine. But what the heck, try it out and see if the dog can run.
Hope they don't kill Emma. She's much...
I agree completely. Evil brother Thomas definitely brought the story to a smaller, soapier place for me, didn't seem set up at all by what's come before. And I love Snyder's passion. Just think...
Hi Axel! !'ve written in twice in the last 9 months about when we'd see subscriptions made available for WOLVERINE & THE X-MEN, ULTIMATES and ULTIMATE X-MEN. The last time, which was about 5 months...
That Simonson art is terrible. Wow. I didn't even recognize Jessica -- and why are they making out all over the place? It's just bad. Come on.
"Since some time has passed and with Bucky now back as the Winter Soldier, are we any closer to learning more about the apocalyptic vision Steve Rogers had at the end of 'Captain America: Reborn'?

I loved Tomasi's work on GLC pre DCNu. I was really excited about him on B&R, but I found the Damian of the book sounds so different from Morrison's, it just lost me. I realize, he was a stone cold...
Getting sprayed with pepper spray -- really not funny.
Kiel, Thanks for taking my question! And Axel, thanks for your answer! I'm happy to know subs will be made available.
Keep up the great work.
Hi Axel, I have a question for you about subscriptions. I talked to Marvel Subscriptions today trying to subscribe to Ultimate Comics: Ultimates, Ultimate Comics: X-Men and Wolverine and the X-Men. I...
Wow, this threat is all about Magma. Did not see that coming.
What I'm most wondering about is why not even one of the New X-Men rated high enough to be woven into these covers? I have to...
I think it's worrisome that they're saying that it's all about character. Batman and Green Lantern in JL #1 are some of the flattest characterizations I've seen from DC in a long time. And it reads...
My biggest fear based on this interview is that this series isn't taking into account the events of Brightest Day. The whole "I have to make up for my sins" angle is such old news. Come on, he spent...
What a nice thing to do. Very very cool.
Congrats to all!!
Dan, you can talk up the $3.99 price point until you're blue in the face, but I believe the only reason that DC isn't improving much yet in sales is their stories/teams as a body are not up to snuff...
