People who know comics biz better than I do: does the fact that there have been no Nightwing TPBs after issue 50-something mean that there won't be anymore? I don't want to spend time and money scrounging for back issues if I can help it.

There will definitely be more TPBs. That's got to be their bread and butter these days. (CaBil?) They probably just want to collect them in meaningful story arcs. There may be other scheduling delays that have to do with behind the scenes stuff, but I'm sure they'll be out eventually.

That was my understanding as well, which is why I was confused by the timelag.

Remember, remember/the fifth of November/the Gunpowder Treason and Plot/I see no reason/Why Gunpowder Treason/Should ever be forgot.
TPBs are now more profitable than most series indidivual issues, but some series support TPBs better than others. For instance, Y the Last Man makes far more money in trade than in the single issues.
It could be that the Nightwing TPBs don't generate the numbers needed, or that there are other

What happened to Franklin Richards? He was really cute. Completely not Cousin Oliver, but I was more reading him in Power Pack than in Fantastic Four. Which makes me wonder what happened to the Powers kids ...
The Powers kids turned up in New Warriors after it turned to crap when Nicieza (sp) left. The oldest had gained theability to steal the powers from the others by touching them or some thing.

Thrive to spite them
I finally finished reading Astonishing X Men and I'm on the side of those who hate Beast's new look. He reminds me slightly of a Persian cat.
It's a little hard to take him seriously when I'm thinking "oohhh! look at the little smush face!"

I may have to seize the cat.
I like Beast's look, but that's just because any cat-looking-creature makes me happy.
