Same with Jason Reynolds, Nic Stone, Raina Telgemeier and especially Noelle Stevenson.

They don't need comics. Stevenson made her mark with Lumberjanes.

If you are trying to be cheap-it would be someone already working at Marvel or Disney.

Something tells me they want a NAME. A black name and that would lead to one person- John Ridley since he's doing nothing for DC now. Both his projected got axed. DC universe through POC eyes and Luke Fox-Batman.

Oscar winner John Ridley is the new writer of Black Panther.
John Ridley sounds familiar. I remember someone with that name writing superhero deconstruction (more recently described as "capepunk") novels titled Those Who Walk in Darkness and What Fire Cannot Burn.
