History
In July 2007, Zuda Comics imprint was launched to publish new material featuring new characters online. The site's content was chosen by the users through monthly competitions, as "the majority of the web comics will be selected by Zudacomics.com's visitors, who will vote on new web comics presented to them in periodic competitions".[1] The first commissioned ongoing strips and material competing for the public vote were published on October 30 the same year.[2] Zuda removed the competition aspect in April 2010[3] and in July, soon after the launch of DC's digital comics service, Zuda was closed and folded into the new digital publishing arm.[4]
