What doesn't Chuck Dixon write? As the writer for Robin, Nightwing, Birds
of Prey, and several Batman stories, he's probably the second most influential
person in the Batman camp. He's created such memorable characters as
Lynx, Spoiler, and the new Robin. In his
first DCU:NG
interview, I had a chance to ask about it. |
New!

Besides being the writer for Titans and Catwoman, Devin Grayson has a

awhile. But what would
Dan
Jurgens feel ... ? |

No one thought anyone could take over Impulse after Humberto Ramos left
the book, but Craig Rousseau has done an admirable job pencilling the Flash
Junior's adventures and designing neato new characters like Song of Justice

the planning -impaired speedster? Craig
spills the beans
in his e-view exclusive. |
