DC may be facing backlash over Final Crisis

If this Lying in the Gutters column tells anything:
Is "Final Crisis" DC's "One Last Day?" Just as a third of Marvel's Spider-Man readers stopped buying Spidey comics after Peter Parker sold his marriage to the devil, so to DC appear to be dealing with a mini-rebellion. While not apparent as much online, retailers have told me about longtime readers so incensed by "Final Crisis" that they have stopped their DCU books. The complaints usually involve an abscence of comprehension, a sense of condescension and a huge lack of cohesion.If there is a backlash, and I assume it's over the shafting of Bruce Wayne too, it's about time; Marvel shouldn't be the only ones fans should be sending a message to, even DC's readers need to stand strong on many issues.
