When Birds Of Prey #9 was solicited for May, it read thus:

Written by KELLY THOMPSON
Art by VARIOUS
Cover by LEONARDO ROMERO
Variant cover by EJIKURE
$3.99 US | 32 pages | Variant $4.99 US (card stock) ON SALE 5/7/24
If the Birds of Prey have one mission, it's "protect Barbara Gordon at all costs," and that mission is…not going great. Dinah and her team search for Barbara in this strange new world that seems specifically designed to trip them up. Many mysteries lurk in the dark of this world, and some of them don't even want to kill you…probably.
Superman '78 artist Gavin Guidry tweeted "ALSO ALSO my next DC project is really easy to figure out, now that the distributor updated the solicits…" A quick Google and it seems that it is indeed these solicitations that have been updated, with Gavin Guidry and Jonathan Case who have been added as artists, replacing Javier Pina.

Expect a bigger push for the creative when the DC Comics June 2024 solicitations, which I understand have already been sent out to compliant websites, drop.
Gavin Guidry is also known for Going To The Chapel, There's Something Wrong With Patrick Todd and Hearthrob. Jonathan Case is best known for Batman '66, The Creep, Thrilling Adventure Hour, Star Trek: The Animated Celebration, Vampirella and Eerie. And now, Birds Of Prey. Well, from May, anyway.
