    I do love me some BOOM!, mostly their horror related titles (Cthulhu series,Hellraiser, Fanboys vs Zombies) However, I would like to see them come up with a good superhero book.
    What happened to Starborn?The Traveler? Soldier Zero?

    Lack of sales led to a cancellation of all three at about the same time. It made me sad, because I was really liking where Starborn was going.

    I miss the Starborn/Traveler/Soldier Zero too. They really should have been mini-series first, then maxi ones.
    About the new titles, I think that I will do Deathmatch and the most waited, Suicide Risk!
    I hope that for the second part of 2013, they will release new Valen The Outcast and Elric mini-series. I am really fond of these two series!!

    Latest Previews brought to my attention that Hypernaturals will end with issue 12. Which is a major blow for me. Nothing else really has my attention.

    I thought they had said they had all been planned as 12-issue series to make 1 big event?

    Regardless, I'm looking for any excuse now to get some more BOOM! titles. I used to really like them a couple years back, but they haven't really done much to get my attention recently except Higher Earth (which is now cancelled, afaik), and maybe the PotA minis. So...
    Comics were happier before the Internet turned writing superhero stories into fruitless attempts to impress/entertain a small group of ppl who appear to hate comics and their creators.

    Thanks for mentioning Elric.I thought I was the only one following it.I would like to see a different take with Elric solo and darker like the covers implied.More slash and burn if you know what I mean.

    On the website they are classed as 'ongoing'. I thought to be classed as an ongoing a series had to be....ongoing?
    Then again, they've slapped that label on a lot of titles that have only had 12 issue runs.

    Awww man, Hypernaturals is one of my top 5 books every month. I love that comic. So much story they can tell with that setup, I dont see a conclusion by the 12th issue.

    Eh, I really got into BOOM when they launched the Stan Lee heroes a while back and felt that those books had some life to them, but unfortunately nobody else did and they cancelled the line within the year. I also really liked Extermination and felt that Hypernaturals was pretty cool, but I just couldn't afford to keep buying them with all the Valiant and Dynamite I purchase on a monthly basis. Also, now that Mark Waid is gone I don't think the company has been nearly as innovative as it has been, so my interest is basically zero anymore.
