Vertigo Crime were never that good to start with, except for Area 10, so that doomed them, I think. Maybe getting bigger brand names to write the titles, but that just increases the start-up costs in the first place.


I thought they were okay for what they were, but most of them definitely didn't feel like crime stories to me. Even Area 10 felt closer to horror than crime. Some, like the Constantine one and The Chill didn't belong in the line at all. And even the straight-up hard-boiled crime stories didn't leave a lasting impression on me. At this moment, I couldn't even tell you what the Azzarello one was even about.
