It's an imprint of DC comics

They started out bringing non-superhero books to the US in the 90s' It was basically a way to get British talent who didn't give any shits about Superheroes.

They did stuff like Preacher and Hellblazer.

Recently they started pushing books that many would call "SJW" books.

And apparently they sold so bad that it's causing them to just shut it down after like 26 years.

Vertigo was specifically created to *not* be capeshit but...okay.

They published a fucking book by Zoe Quinn

Shit wasn't salvageable. Better to burn it down than disgrace it further.

They weren't doing well before their "SJW" relaunch. A lot of the better material ended or was folded into DC main with the new 52.

The relaunch was the equivalent of a drowning man gabbing a bucket of lead.

Most of the people on CE who claim to read comics don't give a shit about comics. They just say they do so they can bitch about the politics of comics. If you want actual comic talk, go to the comic board. (although I'd argue a lot of people there don't do much more than watch the TV shows)

It's even funnier cause a lot of these people you would think would specifically want to read Goddess Mode, but I'm sure they didn't even touch one copy.
