	Superman, Wonder Woman and Batman are the only three comic characters
that have been continually published since their pre-WWII inception. This is
of course only for comic books (I don't know anything about newspaper
comics). Well, that is about to end. Wonder Woman has been cancelled, but is
going to be brought back in her own book numbered Volume Two, Number One. 
Superman is going to be cancelled, and a similar treatment applied to him.
What about Batman? Does anyone know if this will happen to him, and if not,
why not?
	Wonder Woman's sales were falling, so why bring her back. Superman's
sales were teriffic, so why tamper with a winner? Could the rumors be true?
Has Cadence bought out Warner Communications? Is Jim S. now running DC? Only
time will tell, but if the book NEW X-TITANS FACTOR OF AMERICA hits the stand
next year, I think it will be time to start buying only alternates. I would
hate to see anti-mutant hysteria take over DC.

They were in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Naturally they became heroes.
