That can't be good. Dagnabit. It's funny, everyone I talk too, seems to like it, but is anybody besides you and I buying the darned thing?

What make syou think I'M buying that crap?

No, seriously, of course I'm buying it. The article also stated that DC seems to be bleeding on all of its books and there are several books lower than Jonah that are still not canceled. Seems the threshold is lower than we thought for cancelation.

On a side note, is anybody beside you & me reading this BLOG?!?!

I have to admit that I'm not a big of fan of Noto as some people are, but he sure beats the hell out of Giffen in the last issues of Hex.
