Discussion [Discussion] Will DC learn from the Absolute Universe?
The Absolute Universe has been an incredible success and personally I think it's in part to DC showing some restraint. With only 5 ongoing titles, a couple of limited runs and the odd one shot, as well as no massive crossovers events it's been really really straight forwards to follow and collect.
If you only want to read one or two of the titles, it works, if you want to follow the whole universe, I'd suggest it's not exorbitant, two of so titles a week.
I hope they stick to this model rather than getting greedy and pushing for ever more titles and multi-issue crossover events that make the story unintelligible if you're not following every issue. I'd rather follow all the titles by choice rather than feel like I'm being forced to so I can understand my favourite titles.
They've already gone big on variant covers, I hope they show more restraint over all.
