dc just mentioned (not for the first time) that their kids comics are "loss leaders" that never turn a profit. since i doubt very much that every single one of those comics is bad, i think dc might be overlooking the importance of factors like, say, NO KID BUYS PERIODICAL COMICS, AND NOT IN A DIRECT MARKET COMICS SHOP. just, you know, throwing that out there.

Too right.

Anyway, yet another ww manga pitch. I have a suspicion that the very mention of the word "manga" in connexion with one the DC trademarks is triggering in the halls of DC Comics. That manga is the enemy, & mangafication is surrender.

Evs.

This pitch, at which I have just glanced, looks further from classic Wondy than Tintin Pantoja's.

My advice? FILE OFF THE SERIAL NUMBERS. Cut Bats, reinvent the Wondy into your own character, & sell it to Yen Press or somebody.
