That said, we will be reducing the size of the slate.
When we think about reaching global audiences, and we see comics as helping drive that awareness and that international brand, it’s very much part of our future. The organization leans on us to share and establish the meaningful elements of the content that they need to use and incorporate for all their adaptations. The need for storytelling, updating the mythology, is vital to what we do. It is still the cornerstone of everything that we do. Listen in as Jace joins the DarkKnightNation YouTube channel to talk about the recent DC NewsĪbsolutely. Ultimately only time will tell, how much of what Lee says plays out as expected and what may come as a surprise. Does this mean I have some special insider knowledge I am dishing on here and I know better than Jim Lee? Of course not, but getting back to the intelligence of Lee, he is smart of enough to know he needs try to calm the fears of DC fans who are worried about the future and he also seems to have mastered the art of corporate speak. I decided to take my 40 years of comic reading along with my experiences covering the industry for the last 10 years and examine what Lee has to say point by point. What is very interesting when examining the answers that Lee gave, wasn’t so much what he said, but rather what he didn’t say. His interview was originally supposed to promote the upcoming DC Fandome virtual comic convention, but it also clarified some of the rumors that have been swirling on social media about the impending layoffs and how it might affect the publisher. Now with news coming out of significant layoffs at Warner Brothers heavily impacting DC comics, Lee sat down with The Hollywood Reporter. More recently, in 2018, DC added the role of Chief Creative Officer to Lee’s responsibilities and he become sole publisher when DiDio left DC earlier this year. He then rose through the ranks of DC ultimately taking on the role of Co-Publisher, along with Dan DiDio, in early 2010. From these beginnings to becoming one of Marvel best-selling artist of all-time, Lee went on to co-found Image Comics and ultimately joined DC when he sold his studio Wildstorm to the publisher in 1998.
A lifelong comic fan, he decided to take a year to try and fulfill his dream of becoming a comic creator before entering medical school.
Educated at Princeton University, Lee obtained his undergraduate degree in psychology in anticipation of going to medical school.
