How bad is the new series selling? I liked the first issue and will probably get the rest.
icv2's estimate for #1 was 13,174.  It's a good thing that it's only a mini because it probably wouldn't last too long as an ongoing at these numbers.

As the print medium continues to contract, I wouldn't be too surprised to see more of these initial solicit and eventual cancellations, especially for all these peripheral "cult" titles.  Frankly, I'm often surprised that DC (or Marvel) is still releasing all oddball collections. 

DC should just take a cue from Warner Brothers via their Archives:  put these B/C-list titles up for digital sale then sub-contract it out to a POD distributor.  Price it accordingly so they get a profit plus whatever royalties are needed to the creative teams.
