comics dc image larger running
Part of running DC Comics is that it's much larger than Image Comics is, or was. There's a challenge to being one of the industry leaders in that everything you do is scrutinized and watched.

What I love about WonderCon is that, while the focus is on the comics, it's also a celebration of games and movies and all the ancillary media.
bring comics fans flip review tend time work

In the '50s, a lot of stories were built around radiation and the proliferation of new technology. In the '70s, there were a lot of stories that dealt with the Vietnam War. So comic books have always been a reflection of the times we live in.

I certainly wouldn't buy a DVD series of a hit show and start at Season 7. I would want to go back and start from the beginning.
