Newest She-Hulk series cancelled
I'd almost missed this news from 2 weeks ago, that the latest volume starring She-Hulk has been discontinued. After some of the press articles blabbing about how Marvel was making such a huge push to launch monthly series casting superheroines in the lead, this certainly doesn't do much to convince they ever really meant it. Interestingly, the article says:
Don't expect the mainstream press to give the end to this She-Hulk volume any coverage, just like they haven't exactly spoken about why they're worth reading, even for women. And if they haven't mentioned a word about the cancellation, that only confirms these books with women in the lead are a flash-in-the-pan topic for the media that they never had serious interest in.
[...] The series is often compared to books like Matt Fraction's Hawkeye and Mark Waid's Daredevil in terms of offering a unique approach to superhero storytelling.Those two writers, one who's extremely pretentious and the other who threw away any credibility a decade ago? If Charles Soule, who penned this take on Jennifer Walters, did anything similar to what Waid did recently with DD, then I see far less reason to assume this book could be admired on its own merits.

Looking at the numbers it seems that the Silver Surfer is getting close to the end as well.
I wonder how long it will be until we hear about how great the book is doing.
