Your pal Tom Brevoort just said on Formspring that you guys intentionally avoid putting resources into X-Men when possible because, supposedly, you all don't receive 100% of the revenues from X-Men. Now, I've noticed that you're quick to bee negative about X-Men fans according what Brevoort supposedly told you but, perhaps they have a point about you guys "hating" or "downplaying" the X-Men? Or are you going to ignore this and continue the bashing...which looks to be unfounded right now.

no, he was specifically talking about X-merchandising and animation versus marvel studios.  he said the OPPOSITE about publishing. 

i promise, if i thought i was on a book that was getting the shaft, i would just leave. why waste my time? right?
