Confirmed: Gail Simone To Pen Wonder Woman And We Are Most Pleased

Fans of Wonder Woman rejoice! We know you're out there. We want to be one of you, we really do, but we've never really "got" the character in her recent solo incarnations. We strongly suspect that will change, however, when Simone takes over the book. She's one of our favorite writers out there, and one of our all time favorite female superhero comics writers, along with Louise Simonson. Click here for the Newsarama story from earlier today. Not sure that this makes up for her leaving Birds of Prey, but it will help. And then there's Welcome to Tranquility, her newest title. Are you reading it? You should. It's great. Our friend Amy over at Arrogant Self-Reliance is undoubtedly doing a jig in celebration. We hope you are too! Did e mention how gracious Gail was over at last year's Comic-Con? Congratulations on making it to the top of mountain Gail! You deserve it. Now hopefully some of the top creators out there will show you more respect. If not, ignore the haters.
