Manhunter, who's issue 26 is on the Wizard's Top Ten this month, is also getting the axe, again, after issue 30, and it looks like she's being set up as a traditional space-faring Manhunter. Bleh. Move her to BoP permanently or let her keep her own book. Maybe if books Gotham Central and Manhunter and Warlord (all kick-ass by the critics' standards) can't keep high-enough numbers on their own, DC should think about a Marvel Comics Presents style of presentation, like six, 64-page issues a year, with two or three or four stories in each issue. Like an anthology deal. To get that much goodness is one book, I'd buy it. Of course I bought the books when they were single issues, too, so, I'm a little biased.

DC didn't cancel The Boys -grins-

They just released the rights back to the creators. Ennis and Robertson are taking it to Dynamite Entertainment (publisher of kickass books like Red Sonja, Lone Ranger, and the Battlestar Galactica minis).

So rejoice! And give props to DC for respecting the rights of the creator. This never would have happened ten years ago.
