Writer Gail Simone Adds Two Years to Her DC Exclusive Agreement

Writer Gail Simone has been heating up the adventures of the BIRDS OF PREY for the last year — and now she's exclusive to DC for two more years!

"There are a ton of great reasons to work for DC: the characters, the management, footrubs from Greg Rucka, Dan DiDio's fabulous slumber parties, the editors, and the attention to quality and detail all spring to mind," says Simone. "Seriously, I think DC's commitment to the readers is unequalled. They have management you can believe in, exceptional editors like Joan Hilty, Mike Carlin and Stephen Wacker, and a proven commitment to excellence."

"Gail brings a truly distinctive voice to the DCU, and we're thrilled to have her on board," says Dan DiDio, VP — Executive Editor, DCU. "We see Gail as a star, and we believe that the projects she'll be working on over the next two years will reflect this."

In addition to her monthly duties on BIRDS OF PREY, Simone will tackle an upcoming arc of JLA: CLASSIFIED illustrated by José Luis García-López & Klaus Janson!
