Big Shake Up At DC Comics

From Comics Continuum: DC COMICS' LAYOFFS:

"Roughly one third of DC Comics' editorial ranks are being laid off, according to sources of The Hollywood Reporter. 

"Among those said to be losing their positions are editor-in-chief Bob Harris, senior VP of publishing strategy and support services Hank Kanalz, VP of marketing and creative services Jonah Weiland, VP global publishing initiatives and digital strategy Bobbie Chase, senior story editor Brian Cunningham, and executive editor Mark Doyle, who oversaw the rollout of the Black Label line. 

"Jim Lee remains as the CCO. "The majority of the staff of the streaming service DC Universe has been laid off, a move that had been widely expected as WarnerMedia shifts its focus to new streaming service HBO Max. 

"DC Direct, the company's in-house merchandise and collectibles manufacturer, has been terminated as well."
