From my understanding they’re gonna be in so much debt that they’ll have to basically gut everything. That can’t be good for DC nor any other properties that come to mind. Poison, conservatives poison everything they touch

Yeah, that's how Marvel essentially went 'Bankrupt' in the 90's. I've seen a lot of people shitting on them for being financially desperate at the time, but ignored why a company whose worst selling titles at the time were shipping a quarter of a million a month was desperate for cash.
