Times, they are a changin’. It seems in the year 3000 it changes even faster.
Thursday artist Kevin Maguire announced via Twitter that he had been unexpectedly “fired” from Justice League 3000, the upcoming ongoing series reteaming him with former collaborators Keith Giffen and JM DeMatteis set in the 31st Century.
And while declining to comment on the reason for the change, DC has revealed exclusively to Newsarama that former JLAartist Howard Porter will be the series’ new artist, and its debut has been bumped from October to December 2013.
Porter was already working with DC and the co-writers creating concept designs for the series.
“The guy who nailed the character designs on the interior of the book? The guy who teamed with Grant Morrison to make JLA a hit? This is what they call a no-brainer,” series co-writer Keith Giffen said in a exclusive statement to Newsarama. “Welcome aboard Howard. I think this is the beginning of a beautiful collaboration.”
