What Creative Team Would You Like To See Do A Justice League Book?

[Nomads1]

I feel like Gail Simone could be an interesting choice. No idea if it could evet happen.

Simone wrote a JLA Classified arc with art by José Luiz Garcia-López called the Hypothetical Woman, years ago. I found it quite good. Of couse, I could have been dazed by the awsome JLGL art.

Peace

Cool. I'll check it out.

I've just about given up on the main book; give me Ram V and Kyle Hotz on a nice, long JL Dark series and I'll be happy.

Same here.

Warren Ellis supported by Jim Lee or Phil Jimenez. I recall Ellis and Jimenez were ALL KINDS OF MAGICAL on X-Men

I second Al Ewing and Johnathan Hickman, but of writers currently at DC; KSD, Ram V, or John Ridley. Brandon Thomas if it is allowed to be a run with a newer generation of heroes.

Pretty much exactly my thoughts. Al Ewing and artist Dan Mora are basically the two creators I almost always name drop for any hypothetical project, and Hickman gets my vote for basically any big, high concept title. Of the DC writers you listed Ridley would be my first choice, depending on the pitch, but I would also be pretty intrigued by what PKJ (Last God, current Action Comics) could do with the League.

I'll drop Gene Yang too. He did Superman Smashes the Klan, one of the best Superman stories to ever be put to print. Then followed it up with one of the most fun Batman-Superman arcs ever. If he's got a JLA story in him, I'm there for it.

Honestly, I'd rather the ongoing be cancelled and the book retooled as a series of minis by different teams each doing a six to twelve issue story.

As for talent, I'd agree with wanting to see Hickman. I'd also like to see a Mark Russell story.

Russell could be good. And I agree about the League. Or rather, I agree about the Big 7. I feel like the Big 7 all getting together should be a big deal, an Event unto itself. A threat large enough to bring all of those guys together should be special, and rare.

I kind of wonder if the big names shouldn't split up among DC's teams. Have them still get along and be friends, just working in different offices, so to speak. That way you could keep a JLA monthly on the stands (with a slightly adjusted roster) and then do the big team up mini Event with the Big 7 every year or two.

Doubt it would be as profitable as the monthly, Big 7 League title (at least with the market as it stands). But I think creatively it'd be a lot more fun and true to the spirit of what the League is meant to be.

Ram V. Christopher Priest. Gail Simone. Brad Meltzer. Jeff Parker.

I am totally on board with letting the JLA ongoing drop off and replace it with ongoing limited series by specific creators.
