Though I think it is likely she'll be relaunched in the DCU proper.
I hope so. CJ broke the news to me today about this. It's a damn shame if the series is truly gone. It's been the surprise delight of the last 2 years.
Seconded.
The rumor mill is swirling about this and a supposedly canned Vertigo Swamp Thing series by author China Mieville. Karen Berger herself said at SDCC that DCU editorial was getting the characters back.
So I am a bit optimistic, though if it does happen I'm hoping they keep the Wagner/Reeder team.

Amy Hadley Reeder is going to be the stand in artist on Batwoman apparently so I doubt she will remain on any relaunched Madame Xanadu in the DCU should it happen or Matt Wagner for that point.
I would expect mostly likely she will become part of the supporting cast of Zatanna or disapear all together; which is the most likely outcome unfortunately as it is not as if they were doing much with her before Vertigo took her.

I hope they relaunch as a DCU book too if it is indeed cancelled, but like OM said, with the current creative team. I suspected Reeder might be leaving anyway, but I at least need Matt Wagner.

How did I miss all that upthread talk about Madame Xanadu getting cancelled? I love that book! Where did people hear that rumour? I haven't seen any mention of it anywhere.
If it is the end ( ) then we should at least be thankful that Wagner gave us a lot more with this character than he originally intended. I think his original plan was just to write that first 10 part origin arc and then move on, until he kept getting more ideas for her. Thank goodness he did because this book has been wonderful.

I agree 100%. The stories have been great & I was introduced to the incredible art of Amy Reeder Hadley. I bought the TP of the first arc for my mom & she loves it!!
