DC just announced the promotion of Eddie Berganza to Executive Editor.
That's on top of Didio & Lee being co-publishers. And Geoff Johns having his fancy title & Hollywood focus.
If you'll recall, Executive Editor was the position filled by Dan Didio for years when DC didn't have an Editor-in-Chief and only one man (Paul Levitz) as Publisher.
But now they have two men filling the Publisher role, another man in the previously-unfilled EiC role and yet another in the Executive Editor spot (which has not, to my knowledge, existed simultaneously with an EiC previously at the company).
The need for all of these high management positions escapes me at first glance. It seems to be a sign of bloat.
I wrote the proceeding paragraphs at least 24 hours ago. Now I've read (oddly on CBR and NOT on Newsarama) that Mark Chiarello was announced as a new VP at DC...and I think it's absolutely outstanding news, with no negatives to be found. Does that make me (more of) a hypocrite (than usual)?

How about a fucking update on your page once in a while, jfc
ReplyDeleteAre you still with us?
ReplyDeleteWell, Geoff Johns is pretty much steering the ship creatively and you still can still see Didio's touches everywhere with the Flashpoint events.
ReplyDeleteNot much as changed recently even with the Harras announcement in the past 6 months.
Seriously man, where ya at? Is everything ok? You haven't updated since last year. I'm starting to worry that Didio and/or Quesada had you "silenced"
