DC actually capitalizing on anticipated movie success?!?!

Chris and I have often questioned the editorial decisions going on at DC, even when we've enjoyed their results. However, this one seems like something everyone can appreciate. Counting on Watchmen to bring an influx of comics outsiders in to stores, DC is putting out $1 special editions of other, more literary genre pieces: Swamp Thing #21, Planetary #1, Transmet #1, Preacher #1, and... uh... Identity Crisis #1. Everyone raises their eyebrow at that last one as not quite sitting on par with the others, but DC is welcoming non-readers with very open arms for a change and this is highly commendable.
