We've been told we're not under threat of cancellation, which is a joy.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSS

Anyway, some other nice quality stuff in there, particularly the Horsewoman/Red stuff and more exploration into Exoristos and Shining Knight's relationship.

I love this book! Happy to hear its safe for now.

The Good:

More awesome

More Bernard Chang

More Paul Cornell


The Bad:

No more Diogenes Neves

Paul Cornell will probably not be writing comics in 5 years.


Here's hoping he picks up another title in the DCU, at least some sort of mini series! It's a shame to have him just on one, and I'd like to see him give a go to the Superman universe somewhere.

In broad strokes, what can readers expect from "Demon Knights" as we head into year two?

Shorter arcs, a sense of movement and increasing velocity. We're going somewhere with big character revelations in the near future, which I think will be a pleasure to some people in the audience. I'm very pleased with the audience reaction. I like the fact that people have got behind this as a team book, an anti-hero book and a fantasy book. We're still around, we're keeping on going. We've been told we're not under threat of cancellation, which is a joy.

Now this is some great news, having character development while reading shorter arc and a sense of urgency is the way I like it. Plus no cancellation in sight considering it's not one of the best sellers is very appreciated.

This book is hitting all the right notes. So glad to see it will be around for a while.

More Deamon Knights!!!

This deserves an animated series a movie and live action t.v. show to help boost the sales. I am also loving Saucer Country I hope that Cornell does some more comic work soon but best of luck to him in his prose fiction.

Sounds good I have been loving this book and it sounds like the Hell arc is gona be all kinds of awesome.

If the rumors about Ivan Reis leaving Aquaman turn out to be true I think Diogenes Neves would be a good replacement.

I had problems with the way this book started, but Im thinking I want to get back into it. Is there anywhere I can jump in?

If the rumors about Ivan Reis leaving Aquaman turn out to be true I think Diogenes Neves would be a good replacement.

I'm pretty sure he's filling in on Gambit, so that might be too late.

He probably will after Saucer, unless he already has another Vertigo idea.

Glad to hear it's not being cancelled, bummer about Nieves leaving. If only they'd lose the female knight character, then I'd give this another try.

[Mr. Holmes]

I wonder if this series would end with Ystin going to the present. Or if Seven Soldiers is somehow canon, and Demon Knights is a prequel.

I'm pretty sure he's filling in on Gambit, so that might be too late.

Well sh*t. I hope he doesn't go back to Marvel full time.
