I wasn't really worried about feeling too guilty, but as it does inconvenience the comics retailers, if mildly, when customers drop titles from their pull-lists, I felt an apology for that was appropriate. And I'm more than making up with it with other purchases.
Interestingly, my behind-the-counter guy (the actual shop owner is only in 1-2 days a week) hadn't yet read the issue himself -- he's more a Marvel guy -- but after my loud, incredulous "*WHAT*?!" when I got to *that* page, and the news that I was going to stop buying the title, he decided he had to suffer through it himself. We'll see what he thought next week... or sooner, if I wind up calling to confirm my TPB order.
