An imprint of DCComics which used to be an independent company. Wildstorm Productions was originally a company founded by JimLee that was one of the original founders of ImageComics, and Wildstorm's comics were part of the Image shared universe. However, when Jim Lee parted ways with Image, the ''Shattered Image'' CrisisCrossover was used as a CosmicRetcon to separate Wildstorm's Image titles into a shared universe all their own. Later, in 1999, {{DC Comics}} formally bought WildStorm during the aftershocks of TheGreatComicsCrashOf1996.

This led to a golden age for Wildstorm as several of its most iconic titles were launched during this period.

Eventually, after a few {{Intercontinuity Crossover}}s with the DC Universe, ''ComicBook/FiftyTwo'' formally assimilated the Wildstorm Universe as DC's Earth-50.

In 2010, DC [[http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=28446 retired the Wildstorm imprint]] due to changes in the market. But that might have been no more than a head-fake, because the next year they [[http://www.comicsalliance.com/2011/06/09/wildstorm-and-dc-continue-to-integrate-on-the-edge integrated Wildstorm into a rebooted DC universe]], complete with a revived Stormwatch ongoing.
