Old news.
Though if, as Bleeding Cool suggests, Death's Head got cancelled before even publishing an issue that would make me very sad. But it would explain why we've not seen anything recently.
I'm wondering what happened with the Citizen V tease.

They better not cancel the new Blade book. I will straight-up boycott all Marvel books.
I have a feeling that one is canned too.

You realize that that's basically a textbook example of how the traditional "descent into darkness" starts, right?
The Squadron were a group of heroes.
Not so much any more.

Keep your filthy lies to yourself, Messi-kun. I want more diversity in my comics.

Does anyone in the UK buy from disposableheroes? What the fuck has happened to them?
Based on what we know it doesn't seem like the characters will be moved in that direction. We'll see how things change in the future though.

Fuck, but I can't even tell which orders were for what, they were months in advance and only have order numbers, not details.
Where do you buy from now? I mainly used them because they used the thicker comic bags.

Comixology, it persuaded me to go all digital in the end. I was only buying my Star Wars comics off them anyway.
Did you use Paypal to pay for your books? I phoned up, gave them my order numbers and the amounts. Ten days later they'd refunded me.
So basically it looks like they are taking a page out of Marvel's book, which I would say is both good and bad.

I did, but there are several orders and I know more than one is outstanding, I just don't know which ones. I can't well go and ask for a refund for all of them.

I wouldn't be surprised lol. Rich would never live it down if that happened.
If true I'm interested in seeing what effect going bi-weekly has on the book.

I feel nothing.

e: However, it's the same Rich that's calling these books cancelled and

If Vision and Grayson are anything to go by this seems like a great choice.
Apparently it's cancelled.

Isn't it already confirmed as not canceled? King & Seeley said something to the effect of "we're moving to a different book for a bit but another team is stepping in until we get back."

Article actually said that some of the cancelled books would be shuffled around kinda. So Black Canary, Starfire, and Grayson would shift to Birds of Prey, Titans, and Nightwing. Could see some of that especially with Batgirl kind of teasing a new BoP.
King on Batman would be cool. I'd have a reason to read it again.

grain of salt and all that, but FUCK YEAH if true
Meh, I actually think Rich has a reasonable hit rate. I'm inclined to believe that it is "cancelled".
But every Marvel book was "cancelled" as of Secret Wars. Until they weren't. So King saying that he was coming back eventually may just mean that the book will still be around but a bit different due to a new Bat-book status quo.
King never said they were coming back to the book. He just said that the next few issues are in good hands and that the project he's currently working on will continue to elevate Dick in some way.

The only way I can see this news as being fake is that Gotham Academy isn't on that list but I guess DC has to show mercy to Fletcher.
I don't see Nightwing coming back yet. I see Grayson as Batman again before that.

What got cancelled now? WHAT DID YOU DO, COMICGAF?
Wait what? They said that?
What did ElNarez do? I'm assuming he was hyper aggressive and cursed loads while trying to get his point across.
Well Batman is being cancelled then getting a Rebirth issue and starting at #1.

I mean so yes Starfire is getting cancelled, but then so ks everything. Only thing that's iffy are the books and minis in the middle of their runs.

King on Batman could be cool. Not sure about bi-weekly for fear of burnouts but whatever, if the quality is there...most of the time...I know people probably want a Nightwing solo book but I want Batman & Nightwing instead of Batman and Robin. They could even market it as the Rebirth of the Dynamic Duo! Then Damian can...do whatever it is he's doing at the moment.
Edit: Interesting that Rich seems to suggest DC would be unveiling details soon. I completely expect them to say "After the shocking resurrection of Darkseid at the climax of Darkseid War and the holyfuckingawesome twist and turns *insert spoilers here* we bring you DC Rebirth...

Oh I'll wait until DC says something about it before taking it as fact.
