Thursday, September 25th, 2008--by Stephen Schleicher

Sad news for those who were getting into DC’s Minx line - a line primarily aimed at female readers.  The company has announced it will cease publication in January 2009.

Minx will cease publication beginning January ’09. Minx was an experimental imprint for DC Comics and we are extremely proud of the books we published and the stories we told during the past two years. We thank all of the writers and artists who lent their talents to our endeavor and especially thank readers who came along for the ride. DC Comics remains committed to publishing diverse material for diverse audiences as we continue to welcome new readers.

If DC is willing to slash a whole imprint, look for more titles to get the axe in the near future.

This is going to be a big month for DC fans. First, 52 is over and the fallout can begin. Remember that strange image DC sent us a couple of weeks ago that hinted at the future of the DCU? Did you notice Batman was wearing some strange pirate/Arabic costume? Batman #666 looks like it reveals the tie between that mysterious DC image and the Bat. Also, check out the JSA/JLA crossover titles that were the hallmark of the Multiple Earth series from days of old. Second, May will be a month of direct figures from DC Unlimited including the new World of Warcraft action figures and the first wave of Afro Samurai action figures. Major Spoilers has the images and more in this month’s solicitations from DC Comics.

Don’t forget to click the thumbnails to see the covers in all their glory.

DC Comics Minx Incentive

Wednesday, January 24th, 2007--by Stephen Schleicher

dc.jpgThis May will see the debut of DC Comics’ new Minx line. DC is confident enough in the line it is offering retailers full returnability of The Plain Janes - providing they meet certain qualifications.

There are several different breakdown scenarios, but is runs something like this; if a retailer with a 50% DC Comics discount orders a minimum of 4 copies of The Plain Janes, it will qualify for full returnability.

This offer is only good through the final cut off date of March 8, 2007.
