The ''Schism'' that never was

Originally, Jim Shooter, the founder and Editor-in-Chief of Defiant Comics, had planned to publish an inner-company "crossover" featuring all the characters and titles in the Defiant universe.
The crossover was a concept Shooter had originally developed during his tenure as Editor-in-Chief at Marvel Comics. His Secret Wars crossover with Marvel was originally a big hit with comic fans. Shooter would later revive the idea again while Editor-in-Chief at Valiant Comics, with the Unity crossover; another big hit with fans in the summer of 1992.
This time the crossover was to be called Schism. However, only two issues made it onto comic store shelves before the company ceased publication of all its titles.
