This was on the Dwaynes facebook page.

Milestone Forever gathers the original artists from Milestone’s launch titles: John Paul Leon, Mark Bright, Chris Cross and Milestone Founder Denys Cowan, to complete the tales told in the original runs of STATIC SHOCK, ICON, HARDWARE, SHADOW CABINET and BLOOD SYNDICATE. Milestone Editor in Chief Dwayne McDuffie reveals the final fate of each of Milestone’s launch characters in a bittersweet tale that chronicles the literal end of a universe, and the birth of something new, with major consequences for the future of the DC Universe.

To be perfectly honest I don't think Dwayne McDuffie is all that great comic book writer, now he's a great cartoon show writer, but as a comic book writer he's at best average and at worse below average.

You may be right, but when someone has the best of intentions as he does and was part of something as good as Milestone was, then i want to see the end product.

This is actually GREAT news, now we can have a Dead Universe that actually ends. It IS rather bittersweet though, yet... closure will be a good thing for the characters and the creators. I think that this is a good and nostalgic move on DC's part. Their stock just went up in my book.
