    Something clearly didn't pan out with the structuring of the WOLVERINE books over the last couple of years I agree. I could certainly live with less Logan in the team books (how many X-MEN/X-FORCE/AVENGERS teams is he on now?) and perhaps this overexposure has had a knock-on effect. Jason Aaron's WEAPON X was a criminally-neglected book though and I wouldn't agree that it felt way out of continuity - the final Deathlok story arc/Terminator homage was absolutely enmeshed in Marvel history and full of guest-stars.

    Ah yes... Starman's The Shade would, of course, make a lot more sense.

    James Robinson and Jill Thompson on SHADE THE CHANGING MAN? Very intriguing. Does that mean that Ditko's original creation, rather than the (pre)-Vertigo reinterpretation, is about to return to the DCU? Hmmm...

    This "reappropriation" of characters does seem kind of arbitrary. Much as I would like it I don't think we will ever see John Constantine as part of the DCU ever again and HOUSE OF MYSTERY isn't going anywhere either.

    I, for one, will miss both AIR and UNKNOWN SOLDIER. Excellent books both. :(

    CrossGen did a ton of good stuff in that area - MERIDIAN being my absolute fave.

    I loved this strip as a kid. It has links to Judge Dredd's continuity and is a great deal of fun. We had a plethora of sports-based strips in the UK at the time in the pages of TIGER, ROY OF THE ROVERS and the DC Thomson weeklies so this violent, futuristic take was something of a novelty.

    Lokks like Eric Masterson's son as well (rather than a resurrection) which would tie in with the MC2 version of Thunderstrike.
