And here I was expecting that, with the positive buzz around Earth-2 so far, they would be doing more Robinson books. But, nope. Another writer of stature out the door.
This was one of only three DC titles I was getting. Hopefully who ever they get to replace Robinson will do a good job or it down to two titles.
This is disappointing, as I've really been enjoying Earth 2.
Looks like they're clearing house of writers with actual ideas to make way for yet another big, bland crossover.
From the way Levitz' comments on the cancellation of Legion were phrased, I wouldn't be surprised to hear he's leaving World's Finest as well.
Interesting that he basically got to play with DC Comics type of super heroes... but not have to deal with all the stuff going on in the other books. Maybe they are gonna try to do a multiverse type crossover and he just wasn't down with the idea.
What was the purpose of the New52 again? I originally thought it was meant to get rid of the multiverse and simplify things, but now... I really don't know what the purpose was.

I'm not familiar with any of his work that I know of. I want to keep reading Earth 2 but to me, that's a big world to take over from James Robinson.
