That´s just bullshit. They should have got both of them to do it, and had Rucka´s as Year One. It´s just soooooo stupid, they could have scheduled them to come out at the same time, adding marketing to a JL movie. What dick heads. I´m not a Morrison hater, and I´ve heard about his take and it might be interesting, but Ruckas sounded fantastic. I think Rucka should lose his pride and just ask for a Year One title; I mean he must know corporate clones are idiots by now, and he should just do it for the love of the character. Lets write him and DC.

[...] I’d like Rucka on that book. You can read more about this disappointing news at The Beat and Straitened Circumstances, which have commentary and links to the Rucka [...]

Rucka had the most consistent take on Diana that we needed for years…she wouldve precisely opened an Embassy in a natural evolution from Perez’s creation.
What I didnt like was the interminable Embassy staff…Rachel, Jonah, the snoozefest that was Ferdinand, the most unnessecary character ever to appear in the book.. These characters lacked colour and focus and took said focus away from Diana. It was all a bit ‘po-faced’ at times.
I did rate his unique take on the Olympian Gods – all the writiers are doing it now!!!!!!!!!!!!! – and Veronica Cale, plus a suitable plot ending for the disturbed Vanessa/Silver Swan storyline.
And who can forget Io? I thought his writing was very good at times.

I despair at Morrison writing her in a Year One…I despair, I really do. I went off him years ago when he suggested having siblings Sue and Johnny from the Fantastic Four commit incest in his Marvel Knights ’4′ series. Might have been only a joke…but FF fans didnt appreciate his dark humor.
He freely admits he dosent understand WW so his mini-series dosent inspire much optimism.
