Was that not economically viable?He said: I've run the numbers--it totally is. We sell more Watchmen and Dark Knight than any of this stuff. The only problem is this is how it's always been done and we're set up to do it this way, so we keep doing it.WOTC isn't as dug in as comic companies--they might be able to switch to a different model and take no hit.</blockquote>
