But the reason why those books still sell well is because people stuck around on the titles. I attribute that to the writing on those titles. People stuck with Deadpool, but they didn't stick with Captain Britain. And I expect Captain Britain to sell less than Deadpool, but not 50% less.

I only pick up this title out of curiosity because of the Secret Invasion x-over, and I liked a lot!! So I pre-paid the rest of "the mini" at my local comic shop. So, yeah x-over help to increase sales.

Anyway, all the time I was under the idea this comic was a just mini. The last two issues arrived late to the store and I wasn't paying attention to the web that time... so.. yeah, I just miss the following issues and I decided to wait and get this comic in trades.
I guess it was an error, because montly sales are what made comics keep around.

It is a shame, really.
