That Rocket Raccoon exploitation we told you about is well underway, but when the exploitation takes the form of a series written and drawn by Skottie Young, it's really really hard to complain. And note well: this is an ONGOING series, not a one-shot or mini. It's Young's first gig writing AND drawing for Marvel.

I've been doing this daily comics news thing for 11 years, more or less, and if there is one thing which has remained consistent throughout those 11 years of comics industry tumult, it's Stan Lee Media suing someone or something. I honestly don't remember all the things they've sued, but it includes Stan Lee, Marvel (many times) Conan Properties, and Disney (many times). The suits usually claim that Stan Lee Media owns Spider-Man, or the Avengers or Conan or whatever someone is making a movie of, and the suits always involve insanely tortured legal claims over unrelated documents. The courts always rule against SLMi, as it's called, but that doesn't stop them. They keep coming back.

The month of December was dripping with excitement at DC Comics, as the publisher's comic-book line shivered on the brink of a new year of bold opportunities and potential tours de force. DC's œuvre held strong and even grew slightly in total unit sales versus November, as the publisher thrust into an already booming direct market with stiff opposition its new DC Universe title JUSTICE LEAGUE 3000. The Vertigo imprint, alas, which added DEAD BOY DETECTIVES to its arousing line-up in December, continued its refractory period in-between new issues of THE SANDMAN, the second and next of which shall find release no sooner than February.
