History

In the Golden Age of Comic Books publishing, DC Comics was also an imprint of Detective Comics and its affiliated companies, All-American Publications and National Allied Publications, that were later all merged into National Periodical Publications, later renamed DC Comics. [1] Before the merger, due to squabbles between the companies, All-American published under its own name/imprint in 1945 starting with the February stand date until the December stand date. [dct 1]

In 1987, DC started Piranha Press as a mature readers line. [dci 1] The Elseworlds concept was tested in 1989 with Gotham by Gaslight: An Alternate History of the Batman and became an imprint with 1991's Batman: Holy Terror. [dct 2] Using the licensed Red Circle characters, DC launched the Impact Comics imprint in 1991 as an introductory and new talent imprint. [dci 2]

In January 1993, DC's Vertigo imprint was launched with some former DC Comics imprint titles. [2] DC teamed up with Milestone Media to co-publish Milestone Comics starting in 1993. [dci 3] Impact Comics last saw print in July. [dct 2]

Piranha was shut down in 1994 to be replaced by Paradox Press [dci 1] with Milestone Comics following in 1996. [dci 3] In July, the Helix science fiction imprint was launched. [3] [4] In December 1997, the Tangent Comics imprint was published on skip week, then on skip week of September 1998. [dct 3] In August 1998, DC purchased Wildstorm Productions, including imprints Cliffhanger, Homage and ABC. [dct 3] 1998 also saw the end of the Helix imprint as its top title was moved to Vertigo, where reprints of the Helix titles also were printed under. [dci 4]

In 2001, DC shut down Paradox Press. [dci 1] DC launched a manga imprint, CMX [dci 5] and DC Focus in 2004, but Focus was soon shut down in 2005. [dci 6] Johnny DC was launched in September 2004 with DC Comics' Looney Tunes- and Cartoon Network-based comic books. In November 2006, All-Star DC was launched with All-Star Superman. [dct 4] In May 2007, DC launched a line for young women called Minx. [5] Also that year, DC entered the webcomic market with Zuda Comics. [dci 7]

After seeing Tangent characters in the regular DC Universe in Infinite Crisis in 2006, in Ion #9–10 in 2007 and then in Countdown to Final Crisis, the Tangent imprint was revived on March 18, 2008, for a 12-issue maxiseries. [6] The Red Circle line began print in 2008 as DC's second attempt with the Red Circle characters, this time as part of the DC Universe. [7] The Milestone characters were also licensed in 2008 to be included in the DC Universe. [dci 3] With no placement in major bookstores in the young adult section, Minx was canceled in September 2008. [8] With some licensed pulp characters mixed with pulp-like DC characters, DC launched the First Wave line in 2009. [9]

On July 1, 2010, DC shutdown its CMX imprint and moved Megatokyo to the DC imprint. [10] Then on September 27, as part of DC Entertainment's reorganization, DC announced the end of the Wildstorm and Zuda imprints with Bob Harris named Editor-in-Chief for all remaining imprints: DC, Mad and Vertigo. [dct 4] With the New 52 reboot in September 2011, the Wildstorm characters were adapted into the DC Universe within the "Edge" line, which also featured the Western and war comics. [11] The Earth One graphic novel imprint was launched in November 2010. [12] By the end of 2011, the First Wave line was discontinued. [13]

In a May 2017 editorial leadership reorganization, three Executive Editors split up DC Comics and its imprints. Pat McCallum took the DC superhero titles and Mark Doyle the two mature imprints, Vertigo and Young Animal. Executive Editor Bobbie Chase was given custom comics, DC Kids, Digital First titles, Hanna-Barbera comics, Milestone and the relaunched Wildstorm Universe, plus the young reader imprint expected in 2018. [14]

In early March 2018, DC Comics announced a number of new imprints and lines. Imprints included DC Black Label, youth-oriented DC Inks and DC Zoom and Brian Michael Bendis' unnamed imprint, while DC imprint Vertigo was announced to be launching a Sandman Universe line. [15]

DC Comics discontinued all imprints as of January 2020 while implementing a new age-specific identification of DC Kids (ages 8–12), DC (ages 13 and older) and DC Black Label (ages 17 and above and a reuse of the former label name). This does not apply to the pop-up imprints like Young Animal and The Wild Storm . [16]

Fiction genres Superheroes [dci 8]

All Star , or All Star DC, was a DC imprint that allowed big name creators to make "out-of-continuity" stories of DC major characters. All Star was DC's answer to Marvel's Ultimate imprint. [dci 8] The original purposes of the line was to have stories featuring the characters in their "most identifiable versions as seen by the world outside of comics", but based on the creators recruited, the purpose shifted to the creators' vision. [17]

Only two out of the four planned miniseries made it to print. All-Star Superman was considered a landmark series for the Superman character and the creators. The other title, All Star Batman & Robin, the Boy Wonder , was never finished (the last two issues remain unpublished to this day), but created a lot of discussions. The title is expected to get new branding as Dark Knight, if and when it resumes. [dci 8] Due to scheduling issues of the creative team, the status of writer Geoff Johns and artist J.G. Jones' All Star Batgirl by November 2008 was on indefinite hold. Adam Hughes was working on the All Star Wonder Woman book with some pages completed by November 2008. [17]

In November 2006, All Star DC was launched with All-Star Superman and ran 12 issues. [dct 4]

First Wave is the name of a separate DC Comics line of comic book featuring a fictional universe and a comic book limited series of the same name.[ citation needed ]

The universe was a melding of licensed pulp fiction characters with versions of established non-superpowered DC heroes. The comic book line was launched with a Batman/Doc Savage one-shot issue followed by the limited series and two continuing series. The limited series was six issues long, published in 2010 and written by Brian Azzarello, and drawn by Rags Morales featuring the main characters of the universe.

With DC's acquisition in 2009 to comic book rights for Doc Savage and the Spirit, among other pulp characters, DC Co-Publisher Dan DiDio and writer Brian Azzarello decided on a shared universe for these characters, then added established non-superpowered DC heroes to the mix. [9]

The First Wave fictional universe is a part of the DC Multiverse [43] and was launched in the Batman/Doc Savage one-shot, by writer Brian Azzarello with Phil Noto as artist. [44] This was then followed by a First Wave six-issue limited series with art by Rags Morales [43] [44] with the first issue released on March 3, 2010. [9] The miniseries added additional characters, such as the Black Canary, [43] the Blackhawks, Rima the Jungle Girl, the Avenger, the Spirit, and Doc Savage's group the Fabulous Five. [44]

Two First Wave line ongoing series were then started: Doc Savage, by Paul Malmont as the first writer joined by artist Howard Porter, [43] and The Spirit, by Mark Schultz the beginning writer joined by artist Moritat. [45]

Both of these titles also included back-up stories further showcasing the First Wave universe. Doc Savage's back-up was Justice Inc., starring The Avenger , [43] while The Spirit had additional Spirit black-and-white short tales by various creators. [46]

By February 2011, DC planned to cancel the line; [47] however, the Doc Savage and The Spirit titles were solicited as late as August 2011. [13] DC listed a First Wave collection for a May 2012 release. [48] Licenses for the non-DC characters the Spirit, Doc Savage and the Avenger ended prior to December 17, 2012. [49]

Red Circle was a DC Comics line of comic books in the DC Universe featuring the Red Circle characters.[ citation needed ] The line was the second licensed attempt of DC to use these characters, the previous attempt being Impact Comics.

DC was granted the license to the Red Circle characters in 2008. DC planned to merge the characters into the DC Universe and tapped writer J. Michael Straczynski to write their introductory stories in the series The Brave and the Bold in 2009. The line was instead launched as a series of one-shots in August 2009. [7] The Red Circle one-shots were followed in September by The Shield ongoing series with an Inferno back-up feature and The Web ongoing series with a Hangman back-up feature. [50] Both titles folded after 10 issues, to be replaced by The Mighty Crusaders ongoing series which, by issue #3, was shortened to a six-issue miniseries. [51] By July 2011, DC no longer had the rights to them. [52]
