Dan Didio confirms all the cancelations: "Plastic Man with #20, Flash with #230, Superman #226 is the last issue for that numbering, Wonder Woman #226 is the last issue of that run, Gotham Knights #74, Gotham Central #40, JLA #125, and Batgirl #73" Whew, no Aquaman. Of course, Newsarama later asks about Aquaman: "He was treading water. We're in the process of looking at Aquaman, and have discussed a new and exciting direction for the "One Year Later..." approach on the book. To be very frank about it, this new direction saved the book from cancellation."

Speaking of pilots... LOST producer/writer Javier Grillo-Marxuach tells us the odds against any pilot idea seeing the light of day. With Aquaman being a different kind of pilot, I have more hopes that it will be shown, but the odds are still against it going to series.

Mike Sterling goes Aqualad crazy.

So I saw the Superman Teaser Trailer during Smallville last night, and I had the same reaction that I've had to every promo picture of Superman so far: the colors are wrong. They are subtly but completely uncomfortable. I cannot look at the outfit without my brain screaming "UGLY! BLEAH!" Add in the rather heavy use of "My Only Son" at the end, and I was utterly unimpressed.

Tilting at Windmills is an interesting read for anyone intrigued by the retail side of comic books.
