I’d much rather hear - and get excited about - Chip Kidd writing a Batman story coming out NEXT WEDNESDAY. Not IN THE FUTURE. It could be due in the next five to ten years." I agree with this. Remember the announcement about Adam Hughes' Wonder Woman series? Or that X-Men graphic novel written by Claremont and drawn by Milo Manara? I'd sure like to buy those books that were announced years ago. "Has he even started writing the story?

Those are beautiful books. The curmudgeons who say things like "terrible designer" and "overhyped" must not have seen Batman: Animated or Bat-Manga. Those are beautiful books.

Those Trinity logos are some of the worst I have ever seen. He is such an overhyped designer it is amazing. His designs are as bad as Turner's anatomy. Good job, DC- Give more work to an awful creator. His designs are truly horrible. Those Trinity logos are some of the worst I have ever seen. He is such an overhyped designer it is amazing.

I'll definitely look forward to whatever he produces. He obviously has affection for the character, is an established writer (though not in the comic form), but his enthusiasm is very apparent.

So yeah, he's pretty much a proven talent with an appreciation for the character. He also wrote an excellent Batman short story (art by Tony Millionaire) in DC's Bizarro collection a few years back.
