facepalm facepalm facepalm Honestly, I'm done giving a *SQUEE* about sales. I'm just going to read and buy whatever I think is good. I just can't bring myself to care anymore about an industry where trash like Bloodshot Rising Spirit can outsell pure gold like LaDoTH.

That's been my mindset since got into comics in 2012. Works for me :thumb:

261 Livewire 7 $3.99 Valiant 4,494

How is Livewire still an ongoing with these sales numbers?!? Just what is the Valiant strategy these days, haemorrhage money ASAP? :?

It doesn’t take a clairvoyant to know the same will happen with Dr Mirage using the same formula of unproven writer + B level character = sales disaster

I don't have a problem with Livewire being 12 issues, and if I'm remembering correctly, it had relatively solid sales for the first few issues, but gawd dayum, these numbers are bad, and you would think that Valiant might respond to that somehow. But nope, just keep on chugging. Imo, the new Valiant needs to be a little more cut-throat.

Has it been announced it’s 12 issues? I wonder how they decide the length of these things or when to pull the plug?

Now that you mention it, I can't remember where I heard that it would be 12 issues, but that's what I've been assuming for 9 months now. :?

It would be absolutely retarded to let it go any further.
