If you go back a year, you'll see the same culling- they killed all the cosmic titles last year, Punisher, Greg Pak's (great) War Machine, Captain Britian, Hulk titles, the first X-Force run (which had foundered badly with Necrosha) etc....often trying to pass off books that dont sell as "limited series" by changing the numbering on the last few.

And Marvel experiments a LOT with stuff- often getting a big bellyflop- stuff like Age Of X (which everyone I know skipped!) or those terribly drawn horror titles...but every once in a long while they make a book like the current Daredevil book that makes me happy to read a comic- great art with lovely design and dialogue...
That has to make up for them shitting on my favorite charcaters like Moon Knight!

Hell, even with an all-star lineup, stuff like Secret Avengers has just NOW made the first issue I can say was actually really good- and that was mostly the art- and seeing Moon Knight kick ass in a white three piece suit with his mask on!
Also check out sneak peak of X-23 in AA. Pretty nice artwork.
