Batman & Robin...Quitely Gone?

[The Bat]

Hey, I just noticed in Previews, that they have Philip Tan listed as both interior Artist & Cover Artist for "Batman & Robin" #6...is Frank Quitely gone?

[thunderbolt]

Nope, he did the first three issues, then Tan does the second 3 or 4 issue arc, then back to Quitely.

then Tan does the second 3 or 4 issue arc

Hmm...well, if the Tan ones are self contained story arcs...then I guess I could pick up the Book for those. COOL!

Right...I forgot, it did say conclusion to that story arc. I guess I'll check out Issue #7. Thanks

^^^ Number 7 should be Quitely again. You'd think with the lead time he had he wouldn't need a 3 month break to get caught up.

It will be interesting to see if they can get the rotating arc thing to work with Quitely in Batman and Robin. They never quite(ly?) got it together in New X-Men, although I guess they were always running to catchup from the get-go on that run.

I would imagine their going to use his output level on All Star Superman as a gauge to schedule him on this run.
