DC Comics To Unveil An R-Rated Or At Least “Mature Reader” Elseworlds Type Imprint Called Black Label?

BC reports:

      The success of Batman: White Knight, Dark Knight III: The Master Race and Nightwing: New World Order has demonstrated a readership for more adult-suitable stories using DC Comics characters. So while DC Zoom and DC Ink offer comics aimed at a child and young adult audience I get the word that something called DC Black Label will feature comics aimed at adults using familiar DC characters.

      I have been told to consider them as R-Rated Elseworlds…

Interesting, if true.
