I've read most of the Legends Revealed columns, but I know there's a few I've missed along the way; that must have been one of them. <br /><br />Interesting that Marvel wanting to dump Duffy was behind the ultimate cancellation. I wonder if that was before or after her <i>Wolverine</i> story?

Hmmm. </i><br /><br />I'd argue it either ends in #252 (when the immediate threat of the Reavers to Wolverine is nullified) or #255 (after the Reavers attack Muir Isle, ending the baptism of the Muir Island X-Men), so presumably they just hadn't fully broken down what would happen in each issue in time for the ads. <br /><br /><i>The Wolverine annual mentioned is the graphic novel in the Savage Land, right? The Jungle Adventure?</i><br /><br />Yeah, and as with <i>Excalibur</i>, the first few <i>Wolverine</i> annuals got the prestige format/graphic novel treatment. <br /><br /><i>I wonder why the Fallen Angels LS was derailed?</i><br /><br />Ditto. I've never encountered much of an explanation of any kind.

It seems that they did the same thing for that annual that they did for Mojo Mayhem. <br /><br />The most interesting thing from the article was Harras admitting they were making Magneto a bad guy again.
