One Of The Last Real Ones To Do It
I’m starting to wonder if maybe Moira sought out Destiny during her 6th life for guidance on what to do with the other 5 lives she had. Like she spent those lives learning leading up to 10 which is the 616

He is taking over DC.
Probably the main Batman title soon too.

Bendis being on so many books makes it easy for me to cut them out altogether.
I wish they would give her agent x to work with again. But then again, marvel wasted no time fukking that character up.

he is writing Naomi with David walker
That sucks but I'll still end up getting the book just because I love the Legion and Ryan Sook's redesigns look really cool.
New black horror book coming from Image Comics:
PORTLAND, Ore. 08/15/2019 — Image Comics is pleased to announce an all-new, skin-crawling series by writer Rodney Barnes (Wu-tang: An American Saga, Marvel’s Runaways, Starz’s American Gods) and artist Jason Shawn Alexander (Spawn)—Killadelphia—which will launch this November.
“I wanted to tell a story about people who have fallen through the cracks of society. Those who dream the American dream but do so from the back of the line. That is until now,” said Barnes. “Can they who have been shown little mercy themselves be merciful? We shall soon see. I can’t say enough about Jason Shawn Alexander’s art, which beautifully captures the mood and tone of an American city under siege. And I’m excited for all to experience the horrors which lurk in the alleys and low places of a town we call Killadelphia.”
When a small-town beat cop comes home to bury his murdered father—the revered Philadelphia detective James Sangster Sr.—he begins to unravel a mystery that leads him down a path of horrors that will shake his beliefs to their core. The city that was once the symbol of liberty and freedom has fallen prey to corruption, poverty, unemployment, brutality… and vampires. Welcome to KILLADELPHIA.
Alexander added: “Killadelphia has a human element that I don’t often get to see in the horror genre, and rarely get a chance to portray. The story, at times, has me at the edge of my seat and at others, leaves me with a lump in my throat. One gets the feeling you’re reading about real people with real lives in an extraordinarily frightening situation. Luis NCT and my part, at this point, is to bring the art to the level of Rodney Barnes’ emotive words. I think the audience, and myself, have an amazing ride ahead of us.”
Series editor Greg Tumbarello touched on the tone and aesthetic of the comic. “Killadelphia is an enthralling horror story that claws into the most terrifying elements of humanity and a society in chaos, while being balanced against an incredibly personal story of a son searching to break beyond his father’s shadow by solving his murder,” said Tumbarello. “Not only do Rodney Barnes and Jason Shawn Alexander perfectly complement each other, but the entire creative team has seamlessly come together to make some of the most exciting comics you’ll ever read. This is a series you cannot miss.”
Killadelphia #1 Cover A by Jason Shawn Alexander (Diamond Code SEP190042) and Killadelphia #1 Cover B “Black Friday Variant” by Francesco Mattina (Diamond Code SEP190043) will hit stores on Wednesday, November 27. It can be pre-ordered with your local comic shop or purchased across many digital platforms, including the official Image Comics iOS app, Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, comiXology, and Google Play.

His Books are selling worse than the rebirth books
what the fukk is DC doing
Also, I never understood why they dropped Rebirth when that shyt was both critically acclaimed and wasn't selling bad (I think).
I honestly think is going on with DC and Bendis (and this is just me talking, not anything hinted at anywhere) is.....
A. They threw the bag at him hoping he could lay better goundwork for their movies (remember he was on Avengers when Marvel dropped Iron Man)
B. Connect with the "diverse" teen audience because of his track record of creating successful teen and "ethnic" characters (His Ultimate Spiderman work, Ultimate Nick Fury, Miles Morales, Daisy Johnson/Quake, Secret Warriors in general, RiRi Willams, Yo-Yo Rodriguez (shield tv), Layla Miller)
C. Reboot a space franchise so it could possibly be used for TV/Movie purposes (like G.o.t.G was)
D. I don't think it's a coincidence that Lois Lane got a solo comic right now, even though Bendis isn't writing it (Jessica Jones)

I made a whole detailed post about Bendis' past work without talking shyt about him or angrily ranting about how he didn't write this or he didn't create that.
