DC Cancels Ennis/Robertson’s “The Boys”
NEWSARAMA reports that DC has cancelled Wildstorm’s The Boys by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson. Issues 7-10 and the trade collecting 1-6 will not be shipped, even though they’ve already been solicited.
The Boys #6 was Wildstorm’s third top-selling title in December, placing at 81 on Diamond’s Top 300 list. DC declined to comment on the series or cancellation.
Robertson had this to say:
“It became obvious that DC was not the right home for The Boys. DC is being good about reverting our rights so we can find a new publisher and we’re in the process of doing that now. I’m continuing to work exclusively for DC in the meantime. I want to thank Scott Dunbier and Ben Abernathy at Wildstorm for all their hard work.”
