Writer Chelsea Cain has penned some of Marvel ’s proficient comics in recent years , which is one of the things that made thetargeted molestation campaignagainst herin the backwash of her excellent Mockingbird seriesso difficult to witness . But now , a newfangled series she was in the middle of has been delete before the pre - order period was even over .
News that Cain was determine to pass to Marvel towrite a new serial concenter on Vision and his daughter(and Champions phallus ) Viv was cause for excitement a few weeks ago . But last nighttime Cain took to her Twitter to declare that the publisher has suddenly ax her serial out of the blue . In fact , even though four complete number were turned into the publisher already , Newsaramareports , “ This decisiveness comes one full calendar month before retailer ’ orders for The Vision # 1 were due to Diamond Comic Distributors . ”
I ’m incredibly gallant of the 4 issues we ’ve turned in so far . It ’s been 2 yr of work . And mull tremendous effort by an implausibly talented squad . It kills me that we wo n’t get to share them … Forgive me , Viv.https://t.co/wGj65AFDZv

According tothe Hollywood Reporter , Marvel ’s decision to offset the serial publication boiled down to the newspaper publisher wanting to take Vision and Viv in a unlike management in the long term . io9 has pass out to Marvel and Cain ’s representatives for remark and will update if we discover back . ( It should be observe that Marvel already declined to comment to THR . )
Given that Cain ’s The Vision was only ever think of to be a six - outlet limited series and she wasbrought on to write the seriesbeforeTom King ’s ravel on the book was even over , one has to inquire what it was about Cain ’s plot that Marvel took military issue with — specifically , what could have perhaps been at odds with the fictional character ’ overall trajectory . Cain has talk openly about her intention to focus the series on the dynamic between a single father and his rebellious teenage daughter , a rude and logical write up to cut into into considering what Vision and Viv have been up to in Marvel ’s comic as of late .
Cain also pointed out on Twitter that set off The Vision also means that readers wo n’t get the chance to see Marvel newcomer Aud Koch ’s illustrations :
Yeah . I feel really horrible . Just having so many emergence trust . @audkoch – the creative person – is amazing . So talented . HIRE @audkoch WORLD . She is a FEMALE COMIC BOOK ARTIST . This was her openhanded break .
Whatever the reasoning is behind the cancellation , it ’s a deprivation for everyone . Hopefully , more luminousness will be shed on why this series — which aboveboard sounded like it would have been awful — might never see the light of day .
