Description
In 1978, DC Comics launched an ambitious expansion of its line-up, dubbed "The DC Explosion." However, just weeks later, the parent company pulled the plug, cancelling numerous titles and leaving behind stacks of unfinished stories. This oral history, first published to critical acclaim, now returns in a fully expanded edition. Featuring contributions from key creators and executives involved, as well as analysis and commentary from top pros who were fans of the comics back then, this book examines how the "DC Implosion" changed the landscape of comics forever. The new edition includes additional coverage of lost 1970s DC projects, such as Ninja the Invisible and an adaptation of Jim Starlin's unaltered cover art for Batman Family #21. With its unique blend of behind-the-scenes insights and historical analysis, this book is a fascinating look at one of the most notorious events in comics history.
