DC Comics Kills CMX Line
DC Comics announced that they will shut down their CMX Manga imprint on July 1. DC Comics co-publishers Dan Didio and Jim Lee released the following statement:
Over the course of the last six years, CMX has brought a diverse list of titles to America and we value the books and creators that we helped introduce to a new audience. Given the challenges that manga is facing in the American marketplace, we have decided that CMX will cease publishing new titles as of July 1, 2010. The shuttering of the CMX line does not affect the best-selling series Megatokyo which will continue publication, now as a DC Comics title with story and art by Megatokyo's award-winning creator Fred Gallagher.
We'd like to take a moment to acknowledge the efforts and dedication of the CMX staff and to thank our fans who have supported CMX.
Volumes slated to ship to retailers next month will still be sent as normal. However, it is unknown as to what will happen to the company's unfinished titles.
