I really miss Jeph Loeb and would love for him to come back to DC and write again. I loved his Batman stories so much and would love to see him write Batman again or something like The Question.
I would also LOVE Jonathan Hickman and Donny Cates to write at DC. Especially Hickman. It would be fun to see him write The Authority or even the Justice League.
Do you have a writer (from history or currently) that you would want to write at DC and it so what character or team would you want them to write?
Agreed on Gates! I loved his run on Supergirl. Even though most of his work tied into the New Krypton saga, he still found time to add little character bits and seed future plot threads!
Another vote for Hickman. East of West is amazing, and The Manhattan Projects was insane! Oh, and because of him I’m reading a mutant book again, that rotten so and so.
I want DeMatteis, Giffen, and Maguire back on a new book. Doesn’t really have to be JLI, but should feature at least a couple of those characters (Blue Beetle and Booster Gold)! I think they might be good for a Teen Titans book as well. I love the dynamic they put in place between characters on their team books.
If you haven’t tried it, you should definitely take a look at Justice League 3000/3001. It’s mostly Giffen, but it really feels like a spiritual successor to the JLI run, and even features Blue Beetle and Booster Gold, as well as other characters in different forms, such as Fire, Ice and Guy – now Gal Gardner.
