This volume, which is under contract with the University Press of Mississippi and its series Critical Approaches to Comics Artists, will offer the first extended study of the creative editorial practices of Karen Berger, founder of DC Comics’ revolutionaryVertigo imprint and one of the most lauded names in contemporary comics publishing. Collecting original essays on subjects spanning Berger’s career—as an editor at DC, founder and editor of Vertigo, co-editor of DC’s Minx imprint, a freelance editor with publishers such as Image Comics, and editor of the titular Berger Books imprint at Dark Horse Comics—this volume seeks to forge concrete links between Berger’s editorialpraxis and the comics she publishes.
