I don't know how much you read but I think they would have and what's truly unfortunate is that they have chosen to focus on the movies and nothing else. They lost me back when they dropped the Midnight Sons line (with Ghostie, Blade, Morbius, Doc Strange, etc). DC isn't doing that much better it seems. They're putting all their eggs into Supes and the Bat. And do you think Batman could get a little bit darker? I mean he hasn't sold his soul to the devil so I guess they've still got somewhere to go

Generally I don't read any superhero titles these days. I'd pick up the Spirit collected volumes but at $50/volume (and there are 8 so far), it'll have to wait (I've got Kitchen Sink's printing of the post-WWII stories).

It's not a snobbish attitude, I'm just reading more indy stuff from Fantagraphics and the like. The titles that I buy come out so infrequently (2-4 times a year) that I don't even have a subscription/discount at any store.

I did pick up the new Frank Miller Dark Knight series (which has had a delayed publication of the conclusion) based on the recommendation on a FR thread. With the price we are expected to pay for a story like that, the least they could do is get it out on time.
