From what I have read it was always the plan to end it at #100 Interesting concept. I think I remember reading that myself, now that you mention it. |

Garth Ennis has said that The Boys is planned to be so many issues. I can't recall the number.

You know how some books keep going and lose something. Well, aren't those books more like self contained stories anyway more than say a Superhero book where the possibilities are endless considering crossovers and villains whereas these are more set in their own realm and read more like a novel? |

True but even some superhero books should have a stopping point. It's like a tv show that has run it's course and they keep it going and going and going. |

Those that SHOULD be canceled SHOULD be canceled! No argument there. But some books just have to go on! I mean, could we ever cancel Batman?!!!!? |

Strange but true, I'm going to give my opinion on this. The right creators could breathe new life into any title. Hope springs eternal in comics.  |

Last issues: Ultimate F4 #60 - Ultimatum tie-in Ultimate X-Men #100 - Ultimatum tie-in 100 Bullets #100 Im glad to see some of these Ultimate books go. Ive never really been a fan of them but I know a lot of people are. I did however love my Ultimatum #1. But as far as these series are concerned, its overkill to me. |
