According to Variety, DC Entertainment and WB have assigned a new PR chief in Courtney Simmons..
Simmons will oversee media relations and internal communications for DC Entertainment and be responsible for developing and leading the PR strategy for the DC portfolio of characters including franchises such as Batman, Superman, Green Lantern, Wonder Woman and The Flash along with Mad magazine, Vertigo titles and other DC properties.
Simmons was previously VP of communications for Disney Interactive Media Group and a communications executive for Sony Online Entertainment. She also ran media relations and government affairs for the Legoland California theme park and for Six Flags' Magic Mountain theme park in Los Angeles.
Hopefully this will mean some more attention is given to Vertigo as was promised by company President Diane Nelson when DC Entertainment was first established. Since then we have had, emm, The Losers. With not even an announcement of any other projects in development. Would be nice to hear about some movement on The Flash too!
