Is DC Comics bringing back the Cliffhanger! comic label?

Over at BleedingCool.com they have received some information that DC Comics is registering the trademark 'Cliffhanger!' for comic books, graphic novels and electronic downloadable publications.

Cliffhanger! was a creator-owned imprint by Wildstorm that brought together Joe Madureira (Battle Chasers), Humberto Ramos (Crimson), and J Scott Campbell (Danger Girl). Wildstorm was bought by DC Comics years ago so they inherited the Cliffhanger imprint but it has since been phased out after Danger Girl and Crimson completed their runs and Battle Chasers ended on an actual cliffhanger.

Now that this rumour of Cliffhanger! being registered is out in the open, what is DC Comics doing with it? Is this the first step in the continuation of Battle Chaser's? Joe Madureira promised to continue the comic series with a 3-issue story arc during the Battle Chasers: Nightwar Kickstarter campaign. Fingers crossed that this is the first sign of the continuation of the series! I'll have more on this once the news drops.
