WildStorm Announces New Branding
WildStorm Productions has announced that, effective with its Ex
Machina promotional items, all of its projects will feature a new set of
branding marks.
The redesigned brands will be displayed on covers, advertising, posters, the WildStorm website (www.dccomics.com/wildstorm), and elsewhere, and will encompass three separate house lines, as follows:
• WildStorm Universe: All projects set in the publisher's core universe, such as Sleeper, The Authority, Sleeper Season 2, Planetary, and others.
• WildStorm Signature Series: All creator-driven projects such as Astro City, Arrowsmith, and Ex Machina that are not part of the WildStorm Universe.
• WildStorm: All licensed properties, such as Thundercats and others.
"It just made more and more sense in recent years to consolidate what we publish into a more manageable number of imprints," said WildStorm Editorial Director Jim Lee. "The idea is to push the WildStorm name and imprint to the forefront so that there is a clear call-out to kick-ass books. Now we can focus our efforts more than ever on WildStorm and America's Best Comics."
"We're refocusing the public's attention on WildStorm as a core brand," said DC Senior Vice President - Creative Director Richard Bruning. "By putting the WildStorm name on all their projects, whether they're creator-driven, licensed, or part of the WildStorm Universe, it makes it easier for readers to find the books that share that WildStorm style of energy and excitement."
The initial titles bearing the new WildStorm Universe brand include:
