Milestone Media

Milestone Media is a company best known for creating the Milestone comics imprint (that was published through DC Comics) and the Static Shock cartoon series. It was founded by a coalition of African-American artists and writers who believed that minorities were severely underrepresented in American comics. Milestone Media was their way to correct this imbalance.

Later, Milestone Media began reaching out to creators from other minority groups. At the same time, the Milestone line-up grew considerably more diverse.

Milestone Media was forced to shut down it's comic book division in 1997. This was due to the combination of declining sales, the fallout from the collapse of Speculator Bubble, Distributor Wars and general decline the industry experienced at the time.
