Which reminds me, I'm shocked, appalled and genuinely heartbroken that Marvel has cancelled the TPB of Trouble.
Man, all that hype for 25,000 copies. Whoever employs Jemas would be well advised not to put him in any position to make decisions about, well, anything, basically.
To fair, Jemas had a hand in some good decisions at Marvel, too (like the Ulitimate Universe). He just hadn't made a good decision in a while, and his recent stuff was awful.
That said, I take extra schadenfreude at the fact that it's a Millar book, since I've been calling him overrated and frankly crappy for years.
Garth Ennis & Dave Gibbons had a page in the 2000 AD 25th Anniversary issue that had a little Millar robot following Grant Morrison around saying "Me and Gwant! Klik! Me and Gwant! Klik!"
