Neither do I. I think it's a show of DC's utter lack of faith in Birthright and their complete refusal to move away from the Byrne/Jurgens model. I knew they were hedging their bets in case Birthright failed, but I didn't expect them to actually cause Birtright's downfall. Doesn't this qualify as self-sabotage?

Like I said, the timing is stupid, and it's totally unfair to Waid. Nor is it fair to anybody who wanted Superman to get a much-needed jump-start.
