Geoff Johns on a Superman title and a "Shazam" mini or series. :rock
H'mm... one Batman and Superman title cancelled, wonder which it'll be.

Red ... means it's probably bollocks, Amber ... means it's could be tainted by a partisan source, Green ... means you can rely on it. Up to a point. Maybe.

CALIFORNIA DREAMING

What can we expect to hear at San Diego? Here's a checklist - some will be announced some will not. Not yet anyway.

Geoff Johns on a Superman title. "Infinite Crisis" spin-off books such as "Shadowpact," "OMAC" and "Checkmate" (with a Suicide Squad style book being discussed)-- with some of the same creative teams as the minis. A "Freedom Fighters" mini or series. A "Shazam" mini or series. Expect both one Batman and Superman regular title to be cancelled to be replaced with "Batman Confidential" and "Superman Confidential."

Also look for the already LITG-confirmed Morrison/Kubert "Detective Comics" to get a further airing next to the harbour.

Expect one surprise A-list Marvel exclusive and one surprise A-list DC exclusive.

It might be worth someone asking if the DC Universe titles will be rebooted with numbering from issue 1 after the One Year Gap (first mentioned last year in LITG... snoochies!). It's under discussion, maybe a decision will have been reached for this week.

And no, I'm not going to San Diego. Shut up. However, feel free to text me your gossip and email me your pictures, direct from the convention floor or bar. Details at the bottom of the page. Put them into your mobile/cell phone contact list... now!Source: Comic Book Resources (http://www.comicbookresources.com/columns/index.cgi?column=litg&article=2184)

Half as many as Bendis? :p

Not that I mind of course, more of Johns can never be a bad thing.

isn't he about double Bendis at this point? (not dissing him, i just really don'
t know ~ it seems like he's writing every other DC book at this point...)

I guess you're right, way to take the wind outta my sails. As for what he writes; since I'm fairly new to the DCU picking up his Teen Titans was quite a treat and since then I became a little Johns Fan Boy. So I'm hoping he'll finally write a Superman book I can stomach for more than two issues.

Johns is on Teen Titans, Flash, JSA, GL, JSA Classified
Bendis is on Avengers, ult Spidey, Secret War, House of M, Powers

It's a tie!

(not argueing, just chatting)

isn't Johns co-writing JLA right now too?
and technically, i think Bendis has been done with Secret War for a LOOOOOOONG time, they're just waiting on the painter... (shame, too ~ was a cool series, but becoming increasingly irrelevent....)

oh, and Bendis is still on Daredevil for a few more months, so it's still a tie anyways :p
