[edit] Wrong

Many of the comics listed are wrong. A comic cancelled in 1976 cannot possibly have been cancelled as part of the DC Implosion. Likewise, just because something was in Cancelled Comics Cavalcade doesn't make it part of the DC Implosion; Cancelled Comics Cavalcade printed inventoried stories from years before as well as Implosion titles.

I've removed the 1976 and 1977 stories.

Bob Rozakis did a good overview of Cancelled Comics Cavalcade at [1] which also includes some information about the DC Implosion. Green Team was already inventoried in 1977 and was *not* cancelled as part of the implosion.

A trip to www.comics.org shows that Welcome Back, Kotter's last issue was March-April 1978, which isn't part of the Implosion.

Karate Kid and Freedom Fighters aren't Implosion titles. Karate Kid had a published ending which crossed over into Kamandi, which had another issue after that, and only *then* did the Implosion come. Freedom Fighters' intended ending was the crossover into SSOSV, which had been written before the Implosion. Both titles had letter columns stating that they were the last issues because they were being cancelled to make way for the Explosion. Ken Arromdee 05:29, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] last issue published?

Under the 'cancelled titles' section, the # listed is the last issue that actually appeared, right? For some reason this is a little unclear to me the way it is presented.ike9898 14:47, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] How did these series end?

It would be interesting to read how some of these series ended. Did they have any sort of conclusion or indiction that the last issue was going to be the last issue? ike9898 14:47, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
