Dan Slott hired by DC to write "Superman Unlimited"
The Hollywood Reporter says the dreadful writer who wrote a whole worthless decade of Spider-Man, including the part where Peter Parker was mind-switched with Dr. Octopus, is now moving over to DC to work on a Superman book that's apparently tied in with the new direction for the movies:
When writers and aritsts like these are at the helm, the year won't be a good one for Superman.
Dan Slott, the Eisner-winning writer who has been the guiding force for Spider-Man stories at Marvel Comics for close to 15 years, has gone across the street to DC.Well. It sounds like they're perpetuating the work of previous modern propagandists, forcibly jettisoning the use of The American Way slogan for the sake of one they're unlikely to prove capable of providing a convincing direction for. IGN says the following about the premise:
Slott, who has been signed to an exclusive contract with Marvel since the late aughts, will make his DC debut with Superman Unlimited, writing the monthly comic that will be drawn by Rafael Albuquerque, the artist and co-creator of the award-winning horror comic American Vampire. DC announced the news Thursday.
The title will be a driving force in a company-wide initiative named “Summer of Superman” that ties into James Gunn’s Superman film. The inaugural feature from Warner Bros. Discovery arm DC Studios opens July 11. [...]
The comic will kick off with a hook of cosmic proportions: a Kryptonite asteroid showers Earth with the mineral that weakens the man of Steel, changing the balance of power in criminal empires in Metropolis and the planet. “To survive, Superman will need to forge new alliances, new tech and new tactics if he hopes to carry on his quest for truth, justice and a better tomorrow!” the announcement exclaimed.
“We just launched Justice League Unlimited in the fall, and Mark Waid and Dan Mora are telling a tale of unlimited Super Heroes in that ongoing series,” continued Kaminski. “In contrast, Slott and Albuquerque’s Superman Unlimited is a tale of unlimited Super-Villains that are super-charged by Kryptonite. Green K is everywhere. Superman is going to need to get to work and adapt to survive. Every line of Dan’s pitch is packed with surprises and every line Rafa draws is stunning… 2025 is truly going to be Superman UNLIMITED.”It won't be shocking if villains get a huge emphasis here, in a way that amounts to little more than cheap celebration. Also notice the artist is known for penning a horror comic. That's not exactly a great fit for the optimism the Man of Steel was once built upon, before all the woke pandering of recent brought it down in the worst ways possible. When a writer as bad as Slott is at the wheel, one can only expect something worthless.
When writers and aritsts like these are at the helm, the year won't be a good one for Superman.
