    They won't for the simple reason it's an IP farm. Even if there are more bloodbaths down the line, they're not shutting down the actual DC comic division.

    They can probably outsource the actual costs of publishing via licensing to other comics companies; but they won’t sell off the IPs

    While that is true, the thing is if they aren’t interested in making content with those IPs they might not care about having a farm.

    If that was true then the CBR boards wouldn't exist.

    This was hyperbolic but poorly phrased. What I meant was that I doubt the comics division is high up on zaslav's chopping list, pretty sure he's focused on rehauling hbo max because this isn't the first we're hearing of his ideas for less scripted content on there.

    But even if the comic division was axed suddenly, there's still some big comic fans in position of power and influence at wb, so I doubt they'll let it stay dead for long.

    Yeah, but it has 70 plus years of content already in the can. I mean they can cancel the line and live off the stories that have already been told.

    Well, I guess CBR will have to close down this forum. I'll sure miss my moderator job.
