The End of DC Comics in the UK?

Titan Magazines have announced that the current crop of UK reprints of DC Comics are the final issues.

A brief e-mail was sent out to subscribers last week. See more info at John Freeman's Down the Tubes blog:

This isn't really surprising. Readers had expressed concern about the erratic nature of the comics for a while now, with titles being suddenly cancelled or changing title. (Suicide Squad became Teen Titans Go! of all things. Scooby-Doo Apocalypse has just become Aquaman.)

It's hoped that another publisher will pick up the licence for reprinting DC Comics in the UK. Ideally, such comics are good value compared to their US originals and help to attract new readers to comics. However, compared to Marvel reprints, DC haven't always fared well in Britain. They did OK in the 1950s, but when Super DC was launched in 1969 it only ran for 14 monthly issues. Likewise, The Superheroes Monthly in the 1980s didn't last too long either.
