Whatever the reason is, it got me thinking: Is there any other material published by DC that was Vertigo in everything but name? Again, I'm looking for stuff that was never republished as Vertigo, so early Sandman, Black Orchid, Morrison's Animal Man run, etc doesn't count here.
I appreciate anyone who comments and am looking forward to the discussion!
