Kate has not been rescued. She has been given a reprieve. If enough people buy the next few issues they will keep it going. If everyone assumes she's been saved, she's as gone as Cir-El.
Yeah, but Kate being technically a "reboot" of an established character places her at risk. All you need is poor sales + another writer saying "I've always wanted to do a 'Manhunter' book!" and she's toast. I've seen it over and over again.
Great list, but what's the deal with May? Did she die in her last issue? I mean yeah I imagine her fanbase is steamed her book's coming to an end, but a 100 issue run ain't nothing to sneeze at.

Well Kate has been rescued but other than that I agree completely
Well, Kimiyo seemed to get better quickly...but Nita, Cass and Steph?
Yep, those three hurt.
Okay, just re-read your Kimiyo blog entry - I'd completely forgotten she lost her powers to evil Dr L. Error on my part!

True, but out of all those on your list, she is the one with the best possible chance of coming out fine.

Y'know it's not like Cir-El being gone is such a bad thing. Linda Danvers, on the other hand...

Just read that Spider-Girl will be re-launched as Amazing Spider-Girl this fall. May's saved.
