DC Sends ‘Strange Adventures’ To Black Label

There has been a lot of hype for the next Tom King/Mitch Gerads team-up, Strange Adventures. DC has now announced that the maxi-series will be released under the mature reader, DC Black Label banner. The move isn’t totally surprising, but a good sign that the book will have no limits.

DC Group Editor Jamie S. Rich said, “As Strange Adventures was coming together, we had to take a step back and look at what made the most sense for the project. Since its tone and themes are more in the vein of Mister Miracle than, say, Tom King’s work on Batman, we decided that it made more sense to give Strange Adventures its own space, where Tom, Mitch, Doc and Clayton could follow the story to all the different places it might take them”

That was the impression I had about the book since our first look at the cover. Plus, we are talking about a bloody war here. If this book will push Adam Strange to the breaking point, they need the freedom to portray that.
