why did this fail so badly? with these characters together surely there should have been a better result.

it was never going to be as big as the avengers but i thought it would settle in the 30 to 40 thousand range but issue 9 sold only 21,500k and it is now cancelled, so who is to blame?

I sorta liked it, but honestly I got bored with it and dropped it after the second issue. It had no one I really cared about other than Betty and Namor.
