Vertigo Comics/Headscratchers: Difference between revisions

* Okay, how on Earth does the Vertigo-verse (''[[The Sandman (Comic Book)|The Sandman]]'' + Spinoffs, ''[[Hellblazer]]'', ''[[Swamp Thing]]'', and ''[[The Books of Magic]]'') tie in with the mainstream DCU? Characters appear back and forth between them -- usually in the direction of DCU to Vertigo -- and some have even made temporary or permanent jumps between the 'verses -- Swamp Thing started out as a DCU character before becoming one of the flagship titles of Vertigo, and ''[[Animal Man]]'' and ''[[Doom Patrol]]'' spent time as Vertigo series before making the jump back to DCU. But the thing is that massive, world-changing events that affect the entire universe don't affect both equally -- when Doctor Destiny or the Nameless Beast drive the entire world mad, no-one in the DCU notices, while you never see John Constantine or any of the ''Sandman'' ensemble commenting on things like the Infinite Crisis or Final Crisis.

** You mean the John Constantine that first appeared (no, seriously) in an issue of ''Crisis on Infinite Earths?''
