Vertigo Comics, also known as DC Vertigo, is an imprint of American comic book publisher DC Comics started in 1993, with the purpose of publishing comics with adult content that did not fit the restrictions of DC's main line, allowing for more creative freedom. It consists of company-owned titles such as The Sandman and Hellblazer, as well as creator-owned titles such as Preacher and Fables. The imprint was discontinued in January 2020, and future reprinted material was published under the new DC Black Label imprint, intended for mature audiences. DC brought back Vertigo imprint in 2024.
