Sunday Trending Topics: Another Death In The Family

Sunday Trending Topics: Another Death In The FamilyNo, not that family, this time.  But as the readership is realizing with reboots, we seem to be at that tipping point where we've stopped eyerolling (…so much) about deaths/replacement/rebirth cycles as overused storytelling devices and embracing the reality that they are an artifact of extremely long-form, massively multi-character storytelling.

Haywire was allegedly conceived after Steven Soderbergh walked away from a James Bond directing gig, having clashed with Eon over the proposed film's creative direction.
