    Jim Lee FINALLY Named President of DC Comics

    Mary Anne ButlerBy 1 Min Read

    Artist turned publisher Jim Lee has added yet another title to his collection for DC Comics. Lee, who has served as publisher and CCO (Chief Creative Officer) of the industry giant, has been given a promotion. He is now the President of DC.

    For those familiar with Lee and his work, this seems like a “duh finally” move. He’s been one of the driving forces behind the brand for several years.

    President of Global Brands, Franchises and Experiences at Warner Bros. Discovery Pam Lifford made the announcement.

     “X-Men #1,” which Lee drew with inker Scott Williams (story by Chris Claremont) in 1991, still holds the all-time record for single-issue sales of a comic. We look forward to seeing what this promotion means for Lee and the DC universe.

    Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
