World's Finest #3

October 12, 2009: Superman & Supergirl News from Baltimore Comic-Con

ComicBookResources.com attended the Baltimore Comic-Con this past weekend and filed a report on the DC Nation panel. Here's an excerpt from the report regarding the Superman and Supergirl comic books...

    [Jamal] Igle divulged some details about his upcoming "Supergirl" storyline with writer Sterling Gates. "I finished 'Supergirl' #46 which is the last part of the Hunt for Reactron," he said. "They found him! More on the other end, he found them and its not good. It's not a good situation. We've got that going on. We've got action which is going on in 'Supergirl' #46 and some messed up crap is going to happen."

    "We're pushing the super books really hard right now," said Sattler. "This is something that I started talking about way back when Geoff came onto 'Action Comics'. This isn't going back in six months. This isn't a temporary thing. We're kind of at the halfway point. This is a big story we've got. It's not an event, it's just a bunch of books working together to tell a huge stories. James Robinson and Greg Rucka have done a great job with Flamebird and Nightwing and the Guardian and Mon-El and giving everyone a different taste of what Superman can be like and what the universe can be like. We keep saying, it keeps building. If you look, we went from a bottle to a planet at the halfway, so imagine how much more we're have to do with that story."

    "On a personal note for me, I'm going to be taking a few issues of 'Supergirl' off, I'm going to be off from #47 to #49 and then coming back for #50. In between, I'm going to be doing 'World's Finest #3', which is the first team-up between Supergirl and Stephanie Brown, the new Batgirl." The issue will also be written by Supergirl writer Sterling Gates.
