Half of me hopes against hope that this upcoming DC Rebirth announcement tells us that the shared Vertigo universe is coming back, while the other half hopes that they don't announce that because it would never be as cool as it was in the 90s when Books of Magic, Hellblazer, Shade the Changing Man, Lucifer, Sandman, Sandman Mystery Theater, etc. etc. all shared the same basic universe.
The current Vertigo books are awesome, no doubt about that. But I miss the shared universe days at Vertigo...
Oh well, we'll always have the back issues.
