New Brevoort Formspring
-
In regards of "pissing off" and "driving off" the fans, don't you think there are some fandoms for which it's the same? For example Runaways fans - when Arena/Undercover were going I've seen much more of them getting mad and simply giving up on the books and announce they won't touch any comics that treats them as canon (some of them are only now coming back to buying Marvel at all, thanks to A-Force and Battleworld Runaways), that I have seen getting mad and yet coming back for more.

I think a pretty clear barometer is that, if a fan feels compelled to loudly announce how they’re leaving, they’re not buying any Marvel books or merchandise any more and instead giving all their money to DC and you’ll be sorry–they’re full of it.
The readers who leave just leave. No outburst, no drama, just a departure. The ones who are still incredibly emotionally invested put on the performance (and then most often continue to follow some or all of the books anyway.)
