NYCC 2024: Breaking! DC reveals the return of Vertigo
Good move... There's room for both lines:
Black Label - Adult comics with DC mainstream characters.
Vertigo - Adult comics outside the DC universe.
Hell yeah, I'll be interested in both, good to hear!
About time. They should never have binned it in.the first place. However, without a better contract, I can't see it attracting creator's best work - Vertigo thrived before Image upped the ante on creator-owned work.
It had a lot to do with Warner Bros wanting to use more IP in their movies. When the execs found out that most Vertigo titles were creator owned, they had their lawyers rework the contracts so WB could retain ownership of the works, which caused a mass exodus of talent. Dark Horse and Image picked up most of the talent.
That's it, if they don't improve the contract they aren't going to get many takers.
It's Interesting that this coincides with a change of management - looks like they are rethinking their bad decisions. I wonder if they could tempt Karen Berger and Shelly Bond back.
