Cloak Or Dagger #3

I'm not sure it's the readers not being able to recognize quality. Cloak and Dagger would probably have done great at a small, independent publisher, but Marvel expected bigger sales for a book to have a long run back in the day. Today they all have short runs, so maybe that's the reason for them to give C&D another try.

The mistake IMHO is to link C&D with the X-titles. Although they had a great crossover with the New Mutants about a hundred years ago and were regarded as mutants themselves for a short while, Tandy and Ty have always worked best on a street level, fighting drug lords and helping lost souls in need. Although I'm not Christian, I always thought that they vibed perfectly with Christian themes such as sin, redemption, grace and hope.

Moving Conan to another publisher is different though. Although there have been crossovers with the Marvel universe (I think?), he's really not a part of it, unlike C&D.

Ah yes, I forgot that lame Ancient Avengers title, or whatever it was called. I didn’t read it, The idea was just too ridiculous, even for superhero comics.

I’m not a fan of different universes crossing over. It’s cheap sensationalism and usually diminishes both creations.
