I knew something must have gone bad for DC to be DESPERATE like this, I didn't think it was this fuckin' bad.
The New 52 has hurt them in the long run, hurt them really, really bad, how bad? Bad enough the could lose there slot in the "big 2" if sales continue to drop as radically as they have in the last 5 years.
Pre-new52 there was a fanbase that lead to consistent sales that rarely ever flagged below a certain point, but after the New-52 and the realization it was a universe of fucking nothing you care about DC has realized they sawed the bottom out of the boat.
Sales are lagging farther behind than they ever have, "DC Rebirth" is a DESPERATE ploy to get fans back "HEY REMEMBER TED KORD!?!.....anybody? HELLO * echoing back* hello hello hello..."
