Paul Dini To Provide Ongoing Harley Quinn Backup Stories With Jimmy Palmiotti And Brett Blevins, Starting In April

Yesterday, Bleeding Cool Rumormonger-In-Chief Rich Johnston put his famed corpse mutilation skills to good use Frankensteining the DC Comics April solicitations. While the solicit for April's Harley Quinn #17 noted that fan-beloved writer and Harley Quinn co-creator Paul Dini would be writing a backup story for the book, it was overshadowed by more salacious news like the apparent line-wide adoption of a $3.99 price point. However, a DC publicist took to Twitter this weekend to reveal that Dini, along with regular series writer Jimmy Palmiotti, would be providing the ongoing stories on a regular basis.

It was unclear whether Brett Blevins, listed as the artist on the backup story in Harley Quinn #17, will also be the artist on an ongoing basis, so we asked for clarification:

And Palmiotti, presumably fearing what ridiculous thing we might make up, responded with an apprehensive:

There was no need to worry, Jimmy. Everyone just read Dini's name in the headline and started celebrating immediately anyway, so it wouldn't have mattered what we said here.
