And now, Fearless Defenders is being cancelled at issue 12:
http://www.newsarama.com/19431-cullen-bunn-the-final-chapter-of-fearless-defenders.htmlThe writer says, "I know that many readers were expecting something very different when they picked up the first issue of the series. Maybe I should have been even more vocal that this book was an unapologetic superhero adventure story, that the yarns we presented would be off-beat and strange and… oddball. Maybe such a leveling statement would have reduced the attrition on the series. I dunno. I know that people who stuck with the book really enjoyed it (even when they hated me for being mean to Annabelle). I heard from a lot of people that said they were planning on returning to the book because they “didn’t get it” at first, but I think the damage (in terms of sales) had already been done."
The damage was done by a bad plot and shitty writing, but masking tape it up however you like.
