DC Comics No Longer WTF Certified

The questionable "WTF Certified" banner that was set to be plastered on all of April's releases from DC Comics appears to have been swept under the rug.

In a new report courtesy of Newsarama coming out of the retailer conference ComicsPro, co-publisher Dan Didio revealed that the WTF branding would be omitted from the covers, which are still scheduled to be special gatefold covers.

That means you won't be seeing this on your books:

Bummer.

The reasoning appears to be that the early buzz has done its job to get the attention of retailers to increase their orders (well done, Internet!), so having the official branding of "WTF Certified" is redundant. And yet, plastering Arrow banners across all of their books is still okay...
