This week, the comics world was stunned as DC Comics announced the shuttering of their WildStorm and Zuda imprints. While Zuda had slowly been devolving since earlier this year, inevitably resulting in closure, WildStorm is a brand that’s been publishing quality comics since the early 1990s. Earlier this week, we took a look back at WildStorm, tracking its history from an Image Comics independent brand to an imprint of one of the top publishing companies in the world.
Throughout its near twenty year history, WildStorm created its own universe full of heroes, villains, violence, and whacky sci-fi, in addition to its very own sub-imprints and a wide majority of mini-series that many fans hold near and dear to their heart. Believe me when I say that narrowing this list down to only 10 was harder than I could have imagined.
For better or worse, here’s my pick for the best properties that the soon-to-be-defunct WildStorm Productions had to offer.
10. The Winter Men
9. Gen 13
8. DV8
7. Welcome to Tranquility
6. The Authority
5. A God Somewhere
4. Planetary
3. WildC.A.T.S
2. America’s Best Comics
1. Ex Machina
