Batmite, you're missing the point.

Regardless of what happened THIS MONTH, the problem is that the people who want Atlas material have not seen any in almost a year and know that there's not one coming in the next half year.

It means that every month, there's hope that an announcement will be forthcoming, and then when it comes there is disappointment.

If Marvel considers the Atlas line dead, they should say so.

And before someone points out that Uncanny X-Men waited three years between volumes, I'll remind them that in that three years something in the neighborhood of 5000 pages of XMen were published in hardcover.
