12 Most Anticipated Comics Coming In 2018

1. The New And Improved Vertigo

Vertigo Essentials DC Comics
DC Comics

Release Date: August

When Vertigo was dissolved - nay, assimilated - in the wake of the New 52, fans were understandably upset. The imprint had been one of DC's best and brightest creative outlets, becoming the home to countless characters, creators and more over the course of its twenty year publishing run and garnering countless fans in the process.

Hellblazer, Fables and Sandman are but some of the seminal series produced under the Vertigo banner, and while the characters from those respective properties have found renewal in the mainstream DCU, the industry has been crying out for a strong Vertigo for years now. Those calls haven't gone unanswered, with a veritable Vertigo revival set to take place later in the year.

We don't know yet who's meant to be involved, or even what books or characters are set to feature, but if Vertigo's finally returning, then it's one that's been way, way overdue.
