From Scott Snyder[...]

Alan Moore once told me that he liked to overreact to situations, just so there was no chance of a more reasonable future version changing his mind and being more reasonable, betraying his current state of righteous fury.

It was, as ever, a Rob Liefeld tweet that started it. Testament to Deadpool's appeal and durability is that he thrives regardless of being regulated to D-list talent Marvel A-list never touches.

We knew that Lobo would return to the DC Universe in Deathstroke #9, the first of three monthly titles plotted by Rob Liefeld (and also drawn by him) But there was someone I wasn't expecting to see Jim Lee's Zealot from the Wildstorm series WildCATS.
