During DC FanDome earlier this year, the publisher released the first new comics from Milestone in years. The publishing imprint, launched in the ’90s by a number of Black comic book writers and artists, lasted only a short time before folding, with its characters largely absent from parent company DC’s publishing line since. the course of the 25 years or so since the end of Milestone, there were several efforts to revitalize the brand or bring some of the characters into DC’s shared universe, but all have been abortive and short-lived until very recently, with a new release, more scheduled, and news on a Static Shock movie.
