What publisher is it made under? For DC and Marvel, and probably Image too, that seems really, really low, unless it's just starting out and they expect it to get much better or something.
It's DC and that's right around the danger zone, unfortunately :( But DC seems to be doing pretty good by their niche books so far, and Demon Knights is amazing, so fingers crossed.
@Mercy_: Yeah Demon Knights is awesome. I wish I could get people to give it a shot. If it gets cancelled I'm not sure what I could possible replace it with.
In broad strokes, what can readers expect from "Demon Knights" as we head into year two?
Shorter arcs, a sense of movement and increasing velocity. We're going somewhere with big character revelations in the near future, which I think will be a pleasure to some people in the audience. I'm very pleased with the audience reaction. I like the fact that people have got behind this as a team book, an anti-hero book and a fantasy book. We're still around, we're keeping on going. We've been told we're not under threat of cancellation, which is a joy.
@Jonny_Anonymous: GM's give coach's the same speech right before they sh!t can em. Point is, if the book was doing well at all there wouldnt even be someone there saying, "Dont worry, you're not getting canceled." The fact that someone had to actually reassure them that they weren't under threat of cancellation speaks volumes in my opinion.
@Gambler: Thats true but it still dosn't mean it's going to get canned. I' Vampire is not doing well at all, it's like in the bottom three DC titles each week yet it's still here

For now. We'll have to see which titles survive the next round of cuts, cause they're coming lol. I'm surprised Deathstroke hasnt been canceled to be honest.

At this point I'm beyond caring about anything DC does, they could cancel 90% of there line and I wouldn't bat an eyelid

@Gambler: I was to start with but with all the cancellations, creative team swap outs and direction changes I'v lost interest in almost everything, there is no point in starting to like a book because it will just end up being dumped and replaced by a Batman/Justice League book

LOL. The famous "Vote of Confidence".
Right? Thats exactly what that quote sounded like.
@Jonny_Anonymous: Cant say I disagree. But I love DC, and with Shiva coming back in the next Nightwing......tis a great time to be a DC fan :)

I know Winter Soldier was sitting around low 30s to high 20K sales and it was going to be cancelled. Then the higher ups at Marvel decided to keep it running after Brubaker already found other things to work on.

This.
I am very surprised Liefeld didn't get Deathstroke cancelled.
I saw on the DC website that he's written issue 13 and 0 as well, but I thought he quit; has he really written that many issues in advance? How long before Deathstroke becomes respectable again?
DC wont cancel deathstroke, they can make it into a good title with the right writers, next round I am calling Blue Beetle and Grifter. Demonknights the round after that if sales don't pick up.
