Yeah, and the same thing happened on a slower timescale with Cain's Mockingbird -- the wossname, brick and mortar direct demand Diamond type sales weren't happening, right off the bat, so they assumed nobody was going to buy it. -- Altho then what pisses me off is I know there are other books, like Daredevil and I think Old Man Hawkeye, which did not do as well as books which weren't about white dudes which were cancelled anyway. So the industry's hypocritical AND stupid on a number of fronts.

I guess what might happen at some point is floppy sales will collapse, trades will still go on being printed (and the quality is for shit now) and they'll do everything through Comixology. IDK. It doesn't seem like a big collapse like in the nineties or whenever, but more like a slow prolonged decline.
