DC Announces New Limited Series For Swamp Thing, Poison Ivy, Firestorm And More

If Gullem March is on Poison Ivy, I'm in.

Oh God I hope not. He's a terrible artist, his faces are pointy, creepy and weird, his anatomy is often exaggerated and his posing WAY too sexualised. Did you see any of his Catwoman art? The last thing they should do is let March on a book with a female lead again.

I'm interested in Poison Ivy because of Amy Chu, who is of the current generation of writers and might actually bring something fresh to the character. Aside from the relative youngster Aaron Lopresti at 51, all the other writers here are men in their sixties who have been writing for decades and that leaves me disinterested in those books at this point. I like Raven and I sort of like Katana but I don't know if returning them to their creators is what they really need.

I'm not sure how March is as a storyteller, but I find his illustrations very attractive for the most part. His taste levels are certainly questionable, and I hope he tones that down going forward as it undermines any kind of dramatic narrative. (unless the title is intended to be soft porn)
