Hmmm. Sounds like Magneto's taking the stage again. Could be good, could be "Avengers Disassembled." Too early to say, but Joss helping with the planning doesn't hurt.
Nobody can tell Marmaduke what to do. That's my kind of dog.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Any mention if Brubaker's involved, now that Marvel owns him?
(While I understand that they made him an offer he couldn't refuse, I have to admit that I am in fact bitter about this development.)

Did the cover artist think Angel was played by Graham Greene instead of David Boreanaz?

Preach it. I haven't heard yet what this means for Gotham Central, but with its low sales, I expect a cancellation announcement soon. It also means only 4 more issues of Sleeper, and I guess his Authority run is only going to last 12 issues.
How did DC let this happen?

Yeah, I don't expect GC to last much beyond the last arc he and Rucka are doing. Damn it.

It makes me *really* nervous about their big plans for the coming year. I get the sinking feeling that they're moving away from the kind of storytelling I (and, as it happens, most of the female fans I know) love best and into the sort of meh BS that had me rolling my eyes at superhero comics for much of the early 90s.

The Crisis du jour? Where I am *convinced* (along with half of fandom) that Jason Todd is coming back?

Well, if that happens, that happens in the next few issues of one particular title. What I'm thinking of is the 'verse wide plan.

I think "Jason Todd is coming back" is pretty small potatoes when it comes to the events planned in the DC universe this year. Not only do you have the "Crisis" du jour (titled Countdown and spinning off 4 separate mini-series), you also have Grant Morrison's Seven Soldiers mega-series, and the All Star Batman and All Star Superman series this year. All this is in addition to the normal title line-up. Marvel is doing something similar with House of M, so it looks like the big event strategy is the main order of the day for the Big Two.
