NRAMA: Got to ask Joe - Omega Flight, Avengers: The Initiative, Mighty Avengers, New Warriors, The Champions, The Loners … that's six new team books you're introducing in the span of a few months. Now a couple of those are finite minis, and at least one is a mini with a hope for more, but is this a case where you expect all to succeed, or you know going in there will a couple of market hits and a couple of misses…?
JQ: You can't go into an endeavor like this not hoping that they all succeed, but you also have to be realistic that some will do better than others and that maybe one or two wont stick right away. But then I have this weird feeling in the pit of my stomach that this is a much healthier industry than when I started six years ago and more and more books are finding their legs out there and sustaining considerably longer runs than we had originally assumed with much healthier numbers than originally predicted. That's why I'm very optimistic. I think comic fans are much more open to new stuff and even certain older concepts returning.
For example, I think the Alpha Flight fans are going to kick major butt and come out in legion to support their title. I think that New Warrior fans are going to come out to support their title even if they don't know a lot about it yet. I don't know, could be wrong, we'll see.
