The irony of you champing Milestone when they were OWNED by DC (aka CACS) and subsequently never given a fukk about.
Milestone was the abused and forgotten stepson.
DC CACS let Milestone die. They never gave a shyt about it characters and the ruined the ones they pretended to care about (Static).
Milestone isn't owned by DC.
Per wiki
Publishing deal
Although Milestone comics were published through
DC Comics, they did not fall under DC Comics' editorial control; DC retained only the right not to publish any material they objected to. Milestone Media retained the copyright of their properties and had the final say on all
merchandising and licensing deals pertaining to them. In essence, DC licensed the characters, editorial services, and creative content of the Milestone books for an annual fee and a share of the profits.
[4] Dwayne McDuffie said that DC held up this agreement even though some of Milestone's storylines made them "very uncomfortable" as they were from perspectives that DC weren't used to.
[5] The biggest conflict they had was when an issue of
Static showed the hero kissing his girlfriend on a bed, with unopened condoms visible. DC didn't want to publish this cover on grounds that it was using sex to sell comics; Milestone covered most of the image as a compromise. McDuffie believed it made DC uncomfortable because it was specifically "black sexuality".
[6]
Milestone was criticized by several black independent companies and creators for their DC deal, claiming that Milestone Media was compromising itself by working with a "white" company like DC Comics and was being used by DC to undermine independent black companies.
