I'm not OP, but back in the day I used to be a pretty serious fanfic writer. One thing about fanfiction is that it's ALL serialized; I've never known a major fanfic that wasn't released chapters at a time over days, weeks, and months, with gaps between each chapter. What I learned from years of doing this is that if you maintain a regular release schedule, and perhaps interact with the commentators some, you can gradually build up a fandom for your work, and this is quite nice when it comes to making a name for yourself as a writer. Within some of the fandoms I wrote in I eventually became something of a major writer, precisely because I usually kept a regular update schedule, I regularly interacted with my fans, and I knew how to break up the story into chapters that would leave people hanging, and wanting more. It's always important to know how to end a chapter to keep your audience coming back, and this was a skill I perfected.

If it can work for fanfiction I don't see why it can't work for original fiction, too. In fact it has worked for original fiction in the past; when Dickens serialized the Pickwick Papers it caused a sensation all over London, with mobs forming for the release of the next installment and even counterfeit installments rapidly spreading around London selling a fake story before the actual installment could be released.

It could work and it has worked, in both fanfiction and original fiction. You've just got to know what you're doing, and have a little luck.

Is this the first time in DECADES that DC has notched a clear win over Marvel? It feels like it.

It's going to make at least $800 million.
