    Another DC panel, another rapid fire wrap up of the event as only Major Spoilers can.

    On the panel: Mike Grell, Gail Simone, Grant Morrison, Brad Meltzer, Aaron Lopresti, Nicola Scott, Ian Sattler, ,Jann Jones, Geoff Johns, Keith Giffen, Judd Winick, and Dan DiDio.

    • The Flash: Rebirth begins in January
    • DC has acquired the rights to the Archie superhero characters, and you’ll see them being incorporated in the Brave and the Bold written by J. Michael Stracynzski.
    • The Milestone characters are also returning – ICON, Static, Hardware, the Shadow Cabinet, and the rest. Fans of Static will be joining the Teen Titans.  Very Cool!
    • Following Batman: R.I.P. there will be a two part story that according to Morrison will be “effectively the last Batman story”.  Yeah, right…good thing I’m reading Detective Comics.
    • There’s another all ages comic joining Tiny Titans and Billy Batson and the magic of Shazam – Supergirl: Cosmic Adventures in the Eighth Grade.
    • Gail Simone promises a fight between Batman and Catman in her Secret Six book.  Wait, I thought Morrison said he was writing the last Batman story… (and yes, I’m being a Morrison hater)
    • An upcoming issue of Ambush Bug: Year None will feature Ambush Bug, Lois Lane, and Super Turtle in a Graduate-esque scene.
    • Hal Jordan will be in The Flash: Rebirth.
    • JSA #23 will see a Black Adam and Isis arc.
    • Green Arrow/Black Canary #14 will be the last for Judd Winick.

    Whew, that’s a lot of stuff going on, and I haven’t even hit the other company wrap ups!

      I don’t have a problem with Morrison-hating… as long as there’s an equal amount of Quesada-hating to go along with it. ;p

      On a side note, it’s good to have the Milestone characters back. Static in Titans is enough to make me smile.

      “Morrison R.I.P.” is what the storyline should have been called. If this doesn’t prove a career-killer, i don’t know what would.

      Hal Jordan will be in The Flash: Rebirth.

      Really, is this news? Now, Hal not being in the story or finding some way to reintegrate Ralph and Sue into the story, that would be news; as it stands, this is like having Ted Kord in BOOSTER GOLD or Ollie Queen in GL: REBIRTH level of news.

      The Flash: Rebirth begins in January.

      Ethan claims to be shooting for February:
