Matthew Rosenberg And Moritat On Black Canary #9 (UPDATE)
Bleeding Cool told you that DC Comics had tapped We Can Never Go Home creator Matthew Rosenberg for their superhero line, and that he was part of Scott Snyder's new writer training programme – indeed, we were told he was playing a "teacher's assistant" role. We expect he will be a part of the DC Comics Rebirth project.
Well, in the few issues before Rebirth, we are seeing some rejigging of the pre-Rebirth comics as everyone jostles for attention and starts to prepare for those bi-weekly relaunches, which will increase schedule pressure considerable. We've seen David Walker leave Cyborg for its last few issues in favour of Marv Wolfman. Ethan Van Sciver has dropped off Green Lantern: Edge Of Oblivion. Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo have also left Batman early, as have Tom King, Tim Seeley and Mikel Janin from Grayson. Peter Tomasi has taken over writing everyone's Superman and Superman Slash books.
And the latest is for Matthew Rosenberg to write the DC Black Canary monthly, with issue 9 out later this month, and drawn by superstar Moritat, rather than the solicited Brenden Fletcher and Annie Wu.
Indeed, it suggests that issue 8 may have been Fletcher and Wu's final issue. At least they went out with a song…
UPDATE: Nope, they're back to close out issues 10 to 12…
Thanks to Tony Wolf for the link fix.
