IDW Shifting Its Focus, Hopefully to Survive!

IDW as a company has been through a lot (I've made posts covering that news). Now, it seems there is at least a plan to keep them chugging along. That plan as it were is a shift towards a horror-heavy focus via new imprints with creator-owned series as well as non-licensed content such as superhero, mafia, serial killer, and (interestingly enough) biblical stories--as opposed to mostly relying on the licensed stuff to keep the lights on as they've done for some time such as with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (which they still hold) and other brands they lost such as G.I. Joe or Transformers (over at Skybound in the Energon Universe now). I generally enjoy a good spooky comic and letting creators own the rights can attract some notable talent (look at Image over the years or Vertigo when they let creators own the rights versus when they stopped doing that). Plus, unique takes on everything from heroes to the mob to even the bible could be fun. I mean, why not try to fill the hole left with when Vertigo died that other publishers have attempted to get into as well (but with nobody truly succeeding yet)? More will apparently be revealed in October at New York Comic-Con. I look forward to hearing further details then.
