I read somewhere that DC are having a problem securing the rights to reprinting 80's material in Showcase format because their royalties system in the 80's was different, and they'd probably end up having to pay out too much to the original creators...<BR/><BR/>Hence the SS cancellation.<BR/><BR/>Which would also suggest BATO might follow suit, unless they can sort the issue out.Rolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02103804480646939038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4035532277642340343.post-30457154798040151962007-09-07T04:02:00.000-07:002007-09-07T04:02:00.000-07:00i just have this 'urge' to get Outisders.
