Source: A December Without Uncanny Avengers?

In what comes as no surprise to anyone who read, heard about, or was awake during the publications of Warren Ellis’ Planetary or Joss Whedon’s Astonishing X-Men run, Rick Rememder’s Uncanny Avengers #3 has been delayed from December to the middle of January.  There is one thing all of these books have in common, but here at The Outhouse, we are trying not to harp on the obvious…today…in this article (hey, we’re trying).

Over at Bleeding Cool, which we have helpfully linked to right here, because it's the right thing to do, ...they are floating the theory that these delays are good for the book so retailers can increase or (and more likely) decrease their orders based on sales, expectations, customer annoyance levels, and general ambivalence.

Outhouse contributor, Superginraix, has a more plausible theory; that these delays are planned because, although Marvel is going to resurrect Xavier at the end of this arc, no one knows what to do with him after that, so instead of having him do nothing for years...again, they are just going to keep putting his return off.

All we know for sure is that it will be a sad ChritmaHannaKwanza with no new Uncanny Avengers in December.

But what about Sonic Disruptors?

[Zechs]

They should have just made the book bi monthly like they did Astonishing. Save themselves the trouble. Oh wait even then that didn't help.

Right now I look as SHOCKED! as Don King in a lightning storm.

Reading a Cassaday book is like eating at a good restaurant that doesn't take reservations. The meal is always good, but, it takes what seems like eternity to get your table.

From Marvel NOW! to Marvel ehh Eventually.

[GOSD]

Shocked.

Well, what are you gonna do? I love John Cassaday's work, but everybody knew this was going to happen. Didn't know it'd be this quick, but what are you gonna do?

Pull him off the book? That's probably what you should do, but you're screwed either way -- him falling behind so quickly would barely give a fill-in artist enough time to get this thing back on schedule before January.

[Chesscub]

I think the most uncanny thing is they thought he'd get issue 2 out on time.

The diminishing returns on Cassaday's art is not worth this bullshit.

Continuing to put him on monthly books is beyond dumb.

Marvel MAYBE LATER!

Nah it's still worth it, my expectations for this weren't that high anyway.
