Okay, issue 18 is definitely confirmed as his last one, along with Yanick as well. Figured it was better to place this link here then start another topic.

It's exhausting to be a comic fan this days. So many good books. It's a killer to find a book to drop.

AMEN!

Ive enjoyed Scott's run but it has gotten bogged down recently with the never ending Rot World story.

[SpideyZERO]

Well that was expected.

And I definitely think that the new writer will be Scott Tuff, he helped with the Annual afterall, and I think he will be a cool replacement. The problem will be, who's on art?

I want my Dark March 2013 solicits, and I want them NOW!

They've been out since Friday?

Marco Ruby maybe. He did draw a lot of the series after all, so why not? He's work is pretty good as well.

rudy is working on a different, unannounced project. 15 was the last of his work on swamp thing.

Ah! Then I got no idea. It better someone who can draw good because he or she is going to have a lot to live up to after having Ruby and Yanick on this title.

Let's hope someone good and not some random fill ins.

I kinda dislike how they do with Swamp Thing art, instead of rotating artists, we have Marco Rudy filling in in the middle of the arc. The results were jarring.

i also hope for a strong creative team. DC has built up some interest in this character and i would hate to see it fall into mediocrity as many of the new 52 titles have (imo obviously)

Wow I had no idea that Rudy was gone too. He seemed like the obvious choice to take over especially since his art has really come into his own as his issues progressed on the book. Maybe Kano? He did the Annual, which I think he did a great job on that and combined with Scott Tuft on writing, it wouldn't be a bad combo at all.

With the recent Image comic creator endorsement though, Snyder's got his eye out for those up and coming talents like pushing Justin Jordan (now having both Team 7 & Deathstroke, on top of The Legend of Luther Strode for Image that just started) so Ales Kot or, maybe a bit different, Brandon Seifert from the Witch Doctor series would pretty interesting and exciting choices (on top of the little bit of an obvious choice in Tuft). I look forward to see who jumps on board both on writing and art. Any wishes on the art side with both Yanick and Marco gone?

Make Francavilla the ongoing artist.

[The Animal Man]

they should make Becky Cloonan the ongoing artist she did the annual and an issue of batman so why not? besides it's not like she's too busy
