No no, that was in regards to Soctatic's comment.

Though I can name at least one comic book storyline that changed the identity of its main villain because its plans got leaked...in 1991.

DC's story Armageddon 2001 was supposed to have its main villain, Monarch, revealed to be Captain Atom. However, somehow, word of this got out--keep in mind this was before any of us had the internet--and they changed it, after most of the foreshadowing had already been done, to have the reveal be Hawk, of Hawk and Dove.

NOBODY liked this change...that being said, with over 30 years of hindsight, the story wouldn't have been that much better even if Captain Atom had stayed Monarch.
