Also 1 of 5? what's this now a mini?

****ing Marvel, they made Omega Flight a mini. Oeming is going to explain the reason on monday. Why hype it up as an on-going and even state so and then at the last minute change it to a mini? Bullcrap.

Guess they didn't get the reception they were hoping for. That doth suck!

It had a huge reception though, that's the problem. Majority on various boards were more excited about this book than New Avengers and Mighty Avengers.

Yeah, but internet reaction doesn't translate to retailer reaction.

Just have to hope that it sells well and they decide to make an ongoing.

My comic store said they already had 30+ individuals add it to their subscription box. It's nuts

I suspect the reason may be with too may people downloading comics instead of buying them. It's hurting the bussiness big time unfortunlately.

Most likely, I already added Omega Flight and their Civil War tie-ins to my subscription. I'm pissed with this news, two bad things this week for me.

Haha, thats not bad

and no, no it didn't unfortunately

Its unfortunate they were in the middle of Civil War and couldn't do like a mini or something to introduce the series, even just a oneshot of Beta Ray or something, to pump people up. I don't know, I just assume its hard to sell anything south of the border with the maple leaf on it. 🙂 If they make it good, I can see people getting into the team, but that might be a tall order in only 5 issues...

My mistake, I thought it did. It was a great series. Actually they will be appearing before to introduce the team in CIVIL WAR: THE INITIATIVE and MARVEL SPOTLIGHT: CIVIL WAR AFTERMATH

thats not bad then

there was also that thing with US Patriot in that other Civil War tie in.

lol, at least we can say it has a better shot than Nextwave did 😛

Oh yeah USAgent was in Civil War: Choosing Sides and it was the best story out of the book.
