    It only took 6 panels...

    for me to realize it was time to drop Savage Dragon after issue #121. The stories really have been kind of "meh" the past 6-8 months and by the start of #121 the horse was quite dead and still being beaten as far as Larsen's hate for George W. We know Bush is a moron, but move on for crying out loud. We don't need to be reminded of W's idiocy every month for half a year.

    I never thought I'd drop SD. I've got every issue from the 3-issue mini series up to #121 of the ongoing. All in all, we wound up dropping 4 books from our pull today that I never thought we'd drop.

    They're just growing less and less entertaining and there are other things the kids want to spend money on (like SW comics and manga books).

    Every SD story is the same to me. Lots of fighting with lots of KACHOOOOM BRAKABRAKABRAKA.

    Doom Patrol I don't blame you, I think it's got to be on the chopping block soon for DC. Will you still read Kabuki and Powers in trades?

    If I had to drop one Bendis title, it'd be Powers.

    For me, it would be The Pulse.

    No. I never cared for Kabuki. Donna was reading it, but she told me today to drop it. As for Powers, we just both decided it wasn't for us anymore. Doom Patrol was one that I was getting because I love the characters / art, but the story just hasn't been worth it since the first issue.
