Well, the good news for some is DC is launching 6 new titles in may, announcement of what those are coming soon ... like today, but the bad news to some ... not a lot, but some (like Rodney. Sorry big guy Cry), is the six titles they are axing to make room -
HAWK and DOVE
OMAC
MISTER TERRIFIC
STATIC SHOCK
MEN of WAR
BLACKHAWKS

All out as of issue 8

Agree. While I wanted BLACKHAWKS to be good, and it wasn't and I had hopes for a good war comic because I love my old WWII comics, MEN of WAR was not going to get my money. MISTER TERRIFIC and OMAC? No idea there was any outcry for those titles to be made ... I guess there wasn't.

Those titles just seemed like afterthoughts to me.  Like DC was so intent on having 52 new books, ran out of ideas, and this was the best they could come up with.

Funny,

There is interest in the Static character and the whole line from the Milestone universe, but each new take is just not what people are seeking. Sad.
