Everyone throws out that "I'm not trying to defend _____" caveat, but when you obscure the facts so readily, it kinda contradicts that notion. Thanks for the link, Graeme, and your healthy skepticisim! :) In response to some of the comments: There’s a marked difference between “trouble getting it completed on time” and saying that, after the third issue has been solicited, they still hadn’t seen a single page from the artist.

The "it was late and didn't seem worth it" angle seems likely, if not petty. VVDoom and IRON MAN 2.0 make TWO canceled books from Nick Spencer- is Marvel pissed that he's doing more post-exclusive work with DC on T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agents?

Not defending Johnston (at ALL!) but it appears there was smoke & while maybe not a full-scale barn-burner - it appears there was a bonfire nonetheless.
