 Standard industry practice was to close a comic or magazine if its revenues dipped "towards" the break-even point; publishers did not wait for a title to actually incur losses.Hence, merely to anticipate losses on the other four titles ("Pow", "Wham", "Fantastic" and "Terrific") was enough to doom them.And the closures represented a major cost-cutting exercise, reducing the ongoing production costs on the "Power Comics" line by four-fifths.
