Backed by John Rood (Executive Vice President, Sales, Marketing and Business Development), and Patrick Caldon (Executive Vice President, Finance and Administration), the dual publisher role will allow the driving forces of DC to literally be in two places at once, while Johns as C.C.O, will use his love of the DCU to lead the charge of it’s characters into film, toys, television, video games, animation and beyond.

Jim Lee broke new ground turning his division of Image Comics Wildstorm, into the first to concentrate on decent stories, and through which made it an imprint attractive enough for DC to buy.
Dan DiDio, the sometimes controversial character, has overseen the rebirth of DC, to the point where the difference between the publisher and Marvel is a mere few percentage points.
I think Brad Meltzer, writer of Identity Crisis, sums it up best when he says; "...I haven't been this excited since I was eight years old and reading my first issue of Justice League."
I think it;s awesome that creatives with passion for the characters, stories and history of DC Comics hold power, and not just a bunch of "suits."
ReplyDeleteMaybe Johns in his new position can finally get Didio to lighten up on Aquaman.
ReplyDeleteI agree guys - hopefully with the rowers now steering the ship - we should get a more 'reader friendly' DC than ever before!
ReplyDeleteAnd I mean Johns and Lee?! Could they have picked a better combo?
