There would be, I think, far fewer complaints about late flights if they would instead say something like "ETD: 2:00/2:30PM".

Comic publishers, having relinquished all claim to being professionals, should also relinquish the habit of predicting when their projects will be published.

I kind of miss the old days before Previews and the net, where I'd wander up to a spin rack (or into a comic shop) and simply pick up an issue, without having been told about it (or reading about behind the scenes drama) in advance <g>.

If a new title or mini-series debuted that seemed interesting, I'd either catch it on release or try to track down a back-issue somehow. I was oblivious to creative team deadlines, especially since most books featured teams that stuck around for more than 3 issues!
