I read the solicit for this and was very interested. Ordered the first issue and loved it. I hope people give this book a try. It doesn't have any big name heroes so that might turn people off, but the premise and start is very good. I applaud DC for putting this book out. Pick it up if you have the chance. Good stuff really.

I agree, good start to the miniseries! I'll admit it passed over me until I saw the preview, and that Dallochio was on art duties (loved his work on Suicide Squad!).

Can't wait for #2 next month. :)

Hey thanks for the kind words. We have a lot of twists and turns coming in the issues ahead!

So issues 4-6 solicitations have been canceled with no plans for re-listing.....Sales were so poor that DC doesn't even finish the series....I guess profits come before any respect for the readers OR the creators........

If it's making them loose money, what did you expect? It's a business. What business do you know that keeps a product that is loosing them money?
Anyway, if it's creator owned the creators will probably eventually be able to take it elsewhere.

What?! Where did you find this out? If it's true I'm not very happy, I was enjoying the series. :(

Bleeding Cool, Diamond Dateline, Comiclist.com.........

Ladies and gentlemen, we've got the new Sonic Disruptors! Let's see however if DC still decides to put out a possible trade.

In that case, smooth moves DC *claps slowly*... :(

Jeez it's a freaking mini series it's not gonna kill you to release the last four issues especially with all the other crap you have been putting out on a weekly basis.

Not to be a pain, but it's two issues left I believe (#4 and #5).

It makes you hesitant to buy anything that will eventually be collected~! Not only are the collections usually cheaper and on Amazon, but you don't have the waits between chapters. DC puts another nail in its coffin......
