Interesting (and informative) rundown on DC's newly streamlined business model in the wake of the dissolution of Wildstorm et al. over here at Comics Alliance. Personally, I think it's a good thing that DC seems to be attempting to whip itself into something approaching fighting trim. Granted, it probably means we'll be seeing a lot of similarities between the future output of the Big Two as DC attempts to hijack some of Marvel's more profitable concepts (and vice-versa), but it might also foster some creativity in terms of new product.
It'll also, unfortunately, likely lead to a far greater number of cancelled titles overall as the company focuses more on profit. As we all know, in the world of professional publishing, what's good often has little to do with what sells.
Then, maybe I'm just a bit cynical.
