Spreading unconfirmed rumors for beginners

Well Geoff Johns announced that he and Francis Manapul will be on Flash, I understand that Johns will stay on Green Lantern that he will head up a new core Justice League Of America title to be announced shortly. So while Geoff keeps control over the League and two of its members, friend and colleague Grant Morrison will be keeping the others in check, continuing a monthly Batman book but also adding a Superman and Wonder Woman book to the mix, for the full Trinity set.

From BleedingCool.com

I realize that I'm in the minority when it comes to my blind, seething hatred for Grant Morrison's writing style and everything he represents in the industry, so I'll reserve my vitriol for later. But giving Grant Morrison--Grant "girl power, bondage, and disturbed sexuality" Morrison--a Wonder Woman title? Be not proud.

For legality, something that has nothing to do with anything, but should at least bring a smile to someone's face. From Secret Six #9:

	But I'm just saying that looking logically at the past history of his continuity changes being kept (i.e., they largely haven't been), it's safe to assume that after a year or so, the Bat-Family will settle back down into a near-normality. Depressing, but inevitable. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Most of those prior have mitigating circumstances. Animal Man and Doom Patrol went to Vertigo (though Morrison's Animal Man appears to be the only part left to the character's continuity (LDoAM notwithstanding)), I don't know about JLA, but as far as I know it was never exactly shunted aside, and NXM was done away with by a completely different company.

He was also never put at the helm of the creative direction either company in any of those cases, as is shaping up to happen here. That's something that will give his take on any character a lot more weight. And his stuff on the Batfamily isn't liking to end until he at least stops writing for them, which this blurb implies won't be soon.
