HistoryIn 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 in March 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] In July 2010, DC shutdown its CMX imprint and moved Megatokyo to the DC imprint.[10] Later in September, as part of DC Entertainment's reorganization, DC ended Wildstorm and Zuda imprints and Bob Harris was 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 comics, the relaunched Wildstorm Universe, and the young reader imprint.[14] In 2018, DC Comics lauched a number of new imprints and lines. Imprints included DC Black Label, youth-oriented DC Inks and DC Zoom and Brian Michael Bendis' Wonder Comics imprint, while DC imprint Vertigo launched 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] ImprintsAll Star
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] All Star DC imprint was launched in September 2005 with All Star Batman & Robin, the Boy Wonder.[dct 4] A direct-to-video animated film was made based on All-Star Superman by Warner Home Video and released in February 2011.[18] Amalgam Comics
