    Creator-Owned

    Publisher »

    In terms of quantity, it is much more common for characters to be creator-owned (or company-licensed) than owned by their publisher. However, in comics two of the biggest publishers worldwide (DC and Marvel) traditionally own all their characters. This page is meant to help distinguish characters that are owned by the creator from those owned by the publisher in cases where it's not immediately obvious.

    @aztek the lost: Loved the first seven issues and I agree that was one hell of a lazy ending, but as far as I can remember it's the only Vertigo comic I've collected so kinda gets this accolade via default and the merit of those first seven issues.

    OK I completely forgot the Y: The last man was vertigo and so retract my original post and place Y in Joe's spot, I am rather dense sometimes. Thanks FadetoBlackBolt for mentioning it.
