Who should be the next creative team after Snyder and Capullo?

[Jason the slasher guy]

The only creative team that could replace Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo is Brian Azzarello and Cliff Chiang.

Agreed?

[PyroSikTh]

Not really. I didn't particularly enjoy their Wonder Woman run, and the two Batman-related Azzarello stories I've read were strictly average.

[Dzetoun]

Nope. I'd say there are several possibilities for that. And as Snyder and Capullo are likely to be around at least another 18 months, and very likely longer, any speculation has to be extremely tentative.

[Maxpower00044]

No. I really didn't enjoy Azz's take on Batman in 'Broken City'. The Flashpoint story was pretty cool, though.

[Tupiaz]

No. I really didn't enjoy Azz's take on Batman in 'Broken City'. The Flashpoint story was pretty cool, though.

It was a nice crime story and a lot better than the story before it, that is however also the worst story ever done.

I never read Broken City, but I liked Joker a lot.

[TheNewFiftyForum]

I think Azzarello is great, but he seems to be more about doing self-contained stories (The WW-run, Joker, Broken City, Knight of Vengeance...) than doing a long run on a "universe-driving" title like Batman. I honestly think they might give it to Johns instead, as he's currently the only writer at DC who has enough of a following to match Snyder's and Capullo's numbers.

[Badou]

I think Chiang wants to move over to creator owned titles, and I am not sure about Azz.

Honestly, I don't know if anyone could match the numbers Synder and Capullo sold. I bet they will try to keep Synder as long as they can even if Capullo decides he wants to move on to something else after his contract ends. So maybe they would just try and pair Synder up with another big artist.

If both leave then I can see DC trying to get one of Marvel's big writers and artists or have Johns write it, but Johns would have to jump off one of his current books. I don't think he has the time to write three ongoings.

[InformationGeek]

Hmmm.... Greg Pak? Jeff Parker? I dunno, those guys might be able to do something interesting with the title.

[quinnzel]

*cough*Jim Lee*cough*

I'm only half-joking. I can dream, right?

[doctormistermaster]

I would really enjoy a new creative team. I am not confident on choosing a writer out of DC's current stable (I like Lemire but am happy with his choice titles). I know for certain I would want Patrick Gleason on art.

[Dr. Cheesesteak]

a couple weeks ago I'd have said Azzarello and Sorrentino. But, given that won't happen now... I'll say... Azzarello and Kano. (though I guess it depends on how long he'll be at Valiant...man, DC just can't catch a break keeping anyone, huh?)

[Jphu8414]

I'd like to give the team currently on Detective Comics a chance (Francis Manapul, Brian Buccellato)

[napolid]

I'm really liking Tim Seeley at the moment.

If their run on 'Tec keeps getting rave reviews they might get a shot, just as Snyder was "promoted" from writing 'Tec. I like the suggestions of Lemire, Pak and Aaron, but none of them are really "big" enough to generate the hype necesssary to avoid a post Snyder/Capullo slump.
