Some thing tells me Fifth World is gonna be a huge headache next year but whatever. Any New Gods is better than none and the quicker they come back the better.

How about an Indigo Lantern limited series or monthly?

What about a Ravager or Deathstroke/Wilson family monthly title?

And keep those Terror Titans coming. Great stuff thus far.

"What happened to the end of Shooter's Legion of Super-Heroes? DiDio: We don't cover that. It was a pseudonym at the author's request. We cancelled the book, finished it and shoved it out the door. Thanks for asking that."

I find this response a little rude, and frankly, quite uncalled for. I mean, there are some of us who liked Shooter's Legion (until the last issue!). Even if Shooter and Didio had some differences, while Didio was just bringing Shooter back to the series, didn't he sing high praises of the man?

So much politicking surely isn't healthy, and I think DC has suffered quite a bit for it.

What a JERK!! Well Mr. Didio, hope you are proud of yourself for the number of Legion fans you have alienated with your smart alec remarks.

I say Listen to the podcast to hear how he said it.. might have been more inosent then it comes off in that report

[Flamebird]

I don't think that there IS an innocent way to say that.

Actually, DiDio did not say "shove." That was a misquote on my part, and was been corrected in the article. The accurate quote is as follows (emphasis mine)

We finished and cancelled and put the book out the door.

I don't know if that change makes all that much difference to you, but there it is for accuracy's sake. This is a consequence of the live-reporting process, whereby we transcribe and publish as fast as we can every few minutes during the panel discussion. 99% of the time, the information is accurately conveyed -- if not exactly word for word -- but in this case it seems the substance of DiDio's remark may have been improperly conveyed, so for that I apologize to all.

Thanks for reading.
