DC Comics is home to the "World's Greatest Super Heroes," internationally recognized icons that continue to thrill generation after generation. Established in 1938 with the first appearance of SUPERMAN, the Man of Steel, and bolstered the following year with the debut of BATMAN, the Dark Knight Detective, this extraordinary world of modern mythology also includes legendary characters such as WONDER WOMAN, GREEN LANTERN, THE FLASH, AQUAMAN and the rest of THE JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA.

As graphic storytelling matured and began to reach out to broader audiences, Vertigo was created in 1993 as a venue for material of an edgier, more sophisticated nature. Many of today's most provocative writers and artists, including Neil Gaiman, Brian K. Vaughn, Warren Ellis, Gilbert Hernandez, Peter Milligan, Grant Morrison, Paul Pope and Brian Azzarello, have found a creative home at Vertigo. Among the award-winning series published since Vertigo's inception are SANDMAN, Y: THE LAST MAN, TRANSMETROPOLITAN, 100 BULLETS, PREACHER, FABLES and HELLBLAZER.

Mad Magazine Image
MAD

For fifty years, MAD has been a staple of bedrooms, living rooms, dorm rooms and recycling bins. And in that half century, the magazine has seen its share of highlights (driving a subtle, yet effective, wedge between Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman) and low points (the tragic East Coast/West Coast publishing war that claimed the lives of so many contributors). But in terms of amazing developments and captivating achievements, MAD's history is rivaled only by that of our own country — but with slightly fewer intern-related scandals. So enjoy our timeline and remember — while those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it, those who learn anything from MAD's history are doomed, period!

Countries in the Horn of Africa (Ethiopia, Somalia, and Kenya) are facing the worst drought in 60 years, causing a severe hunger crisis.  Humanitarian aid organizations are on the ground working to provide much needed relief to the drought and famine-stricken areas.

They need our help.  Join the Justice League and DC Entertainment in raising awareness and funds for three nonprofit partners, Save the Children, International Rescue Committee and Mercy Corps, who are delivering aid where it is needed most. DC Entertainment will match donations 100%, and 50% of the purchase price from We Can Be Heroes products will go to saving lives.
