Peace Wed, 13 Jul 2011 13:02:07 +0000 http://blog.newsarama.com/?p=27106#comment-650246 I personally like Paul Jenkins as a writer so I'm glad about that and I'm also glad that DC is making a commitment to their word and sticking to it, going so far as to bring in extra help on titles where creators might feel overwhelmed by a monthly deadline just to make sure everything hits that schedule. So who can complain? I mean, after years and years of whining that comics shipped late too often and the monthly periodical format was utterly vital to superhero comics as a format, THIS kind of news should make existing fans happy, right? It's the dedication to a deadline that you claim to have always wanted!

The exact same number of people will be buying this book whether Finch wrote it or co-wrote it with Jenkins. Unless you think somehow that Jenkins scripting it will somehow REDUCE the quality and it'll be less desirable now? “Does #1 being mis-solicited with Finch as writer mean that it’ll be returnable?”

It was already returnable based on the wider DC incentives for their relaunch. Presumably they could make it returnable without the 20 cent return fee, but they're announcing the change well in advance of the FOC deadline so I don't believe their terms of service require them to do anything. “A question for retailers and smarter minds in the audience: Does #1 being mis-solicited with Finch as writer mean that it’ll be returnable?”

I like the little of Jenkin's work that I've read, but this brings his taste into question. “Jenkins sees Finch as a great storyteller,”
