And so the CCA dies.

While, not technically over with yet, this has to be the end.

Thoughts, opinions?

This makes me happy, no more of their ridiculous by-laws!

To be honest, I wasn't even sure DC was still using the CCA. I knew they didn't have the in-house rating system yet, but I didn't think they still operated under the CCA. I'm glad to see them go this route though.

Holy shit, just read a blurb from Newsarama that Archie is even dropping the seal!

Love the statement: "You know, we aren't about to start stuffing bodies into refrigerators or anything. We have to answer to Archie fans."

It's just as well. It was a useless and archaic system that was created by fearmongering and did more harm than good.

I think only Bongo Comics still follows the CCA, but just like Archie they don't even need it since they do kids comics only. They should drop it as well. Maybe they will, that would be nice...

Bongo dropped it a year ago. So said an article of Bleeding Cool.

Haha, didn't catch that! A blog I was reading thought Bongo was the last one, so guess they're wrong. And thus, a legacy ends.
