Arkham sells 2M, Warner gets serious about DC licensing

You might have heard the news yesterday that Warner Bros. has shaken up DC to better do battle with the now Disney-owned Marvel. Part of that strategy, according to the L.A. Times, is making better use of its IP in licensed properties like video games.

Taking games more seriously is a smart move on DC's part ... lets just hope they leave the things that are working alone.
