if that’s all the problem – or “problem”? – is, then it’s just a matter of time before it does see print anyway.

My third-hand understanding from contributing to the Flash Companion is that TwoMorrows runs all their Companion books by DC Legal to start with, and that DC has recently decided to cut back on the number of that type of book per year that they would approve. It could have fallen victim to that.

Yet DC forced the delay of the Batman book. It may be that they’re more proactive on the “bigger” characters — especially one that has an original movie coming out in March. Or it could even be a combination: for example (again, purely speculating), DC said “you have to delay” and TwoMorrows decided to cancel instead of holding off indefinitely.

Given that TwoMorrows just cancelled Write Now (a magazine I really liked), it could also be a projected sales thing. I love all of TwoMorrows projects, but it may be that the marketplace isn’t supporting the companions. Given that DC didn’t cancel the Hawkman, Legion, Flash, All Star, or JLA companions, I’m betting more on it being an economic decision.
