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:

	I'm actually okay with this myself. I think he could do well with her. (Superman, a character that I 90% of the time find tedious, was actually quite interesting under his run on All Star). Not saying he will, but I see no point to getting annoyed/outraged/angry with it until it's actually out so we can see it. (Reply to this) (Thread)

Not to start an argument, but that was All Star. It's in its own continuity. Would he have written the same excellent Superman in normal continuity, with the current Superman supporting cast (and the rest of the DCU as it is)? I suspect he would change or ignore a lot of things and some people might not appreciate that...even supporting characters have their fans... :(

	I'm aware, but I still tend to find the character a bit tiresome 90% of the time. He's hard to do much with. As far as ignoring large swathes of continuity, characters, etc, I tend to feel that serialized fiction such as comics, where multiple writers, creators, and editors are involved, is not a place to expect consistency in the first place, for better or worse.
