DC’s Black Label Is Getting Much Bigger
DC's new Black Label imprint is poised to get much bigger in the months ahead. In addition to original projects like Batman: Damned and Superman: Year One, DC will be reprinting no fewer than 23 classic graphic novels under the Black Label banner.
The Black Label line emphasizes stories geared towards older readers and with little or no ties to current DC Comics continuity. Accordingly, DC will be focusing on popular standalone graphic novels like Watchmen, All-Star Superman, The Dark Knight Returns and Kingdom Come.

Fortnite’s Concurrent Player Count Breaks 8 Million
Fortnite's concurrent player count has hit a staggering peak of 8.3 million.
Following the rollout of Fortnite's Korea-only challenges this week, that has players visiting internet cafes, Epic Games Korea's Sung Chul Park revealed the number in an interview with Inven (via VG247).
It's an astonishing achievement, particularly when you remember that, back in February, the game hit an all-time high of 3.4 million concurrent players. At that time, it caused some serious server problems for Epic – it seems that the developer's invested in some backup tech since then.
