It didn't take long for DC to announce Tony Daniel's successor for Detective Comics. I actually thought the news would come out at SDCC. Taking over for writing duties will be John Laymen and the new artist will be Jason Fabok who has been filling in on The Dark Knight for David Finch. The duo first issue will be Detective Comics 13 which comes out in October. Here is a quote from an excited writer John Laymen.
“Obviously, this is a happily surreal and exciting turn-of-events for my career. Not only is this my first work within the DC Universe, but I get to work on one of DC’s undisputedly coolest and highest-profile characters. I’m going to take a look at the role of criminal organizations within Gotham City, hopefully from a perspective that does not get considered very often (if at all). From the symbiotic relationship a master criminal must have with Gotham in order to survive, to the lowly, often faceless criminal underling hoping to rise up the ranks. All that, plus Batman’s gonna play with a bunch of crazy new toys and kick all kinds of butt,"
