Batwoman Confirmed
June 15th, 2008 by david brothers | Tags: Batman, batwoman, DC comics, greg rucka, jh williams iii, todd kleinThe “Will they? Won’t they?” over Batwoman is basically over. Todd Klein (accidentally?) confirmed it on his revamped Current Projects page.
Rucka on words, JH Williams III on art, Todd Klein on letters.
Finally.
She’s also going to be in Robinson’s upcoming Justice League I think
Robinson said in an interview with CBR that he’s taking a “hands-off” approach to the character and she’ll be “more off to the side”. Not very encouraging.
Here’s the interview: http://forum.newsarama.com/showthread.php?t=157893
Pretty much everything he says implies that Batwoman was put in because she was one of the characters DiDio pointed to on a Ron Garney poster in DC’s hospitality suite and told Robinson he wanted in the book.
Greg Rucka, huh? I don’t know his work, but I’ve heard good things. I’ll be looking out for reviews when it comes out. If it looks really good, I’ll trek down to the unlocal store and buy #1 in floppy.
I wish they’d kept Devin Grayson on it. She’s also an unknown quantity to me, but a queer woman writer on a queer woman character who’s a virtual clean slate sounds more than a little appealing.
