For reals.
But if they did that, then they couldn't do that thing where you have to buy every fucking book to make sense of what the hell is going on. Which is where the money is.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I'm more shaking my head at Marvel deciding to starting killing off (Wolverine, Deadpool) or cancel the books of (FF) the characters that Fox owns the movie rights to. It just seems really petty.

See, Plei, I think they'd actually get a lot more readers if people knew going in that A)You start here. This is where you start. There is nothing before this that you need and B)This story will end at that particular time. It will not go on into infinity. You can believe that there will be some sort of ending.
Which is much more long-term thinking than most people can/do exhibit.

Eh, that's what movies are for. ::handwaves::
Hey, has anyone charted to see if the decline and fall of the superhero comic matches up with the decline and fall of afternoon soaps? Speaking of things with more similarities than differences, once you get past the surface and all.

Afternoon soaps didn't die, they just moved to prime time.
Superhero comics didn't die, they just moved to the multiplex.
