Newly DC-exclusive series writer Dan Abnett talks about his big plans for what he calls ‘the great legacy team of the DC Universe.’

 

Wally West’s return in Rebirth — and his warnings about a « darkness from somewhere » that’s infecting the DCU — is just the beginning of the story. The character will share his message of 10 missing years in the DCU as he joins theTitans, a new series by Dan Abnett and Brett Booth that launches in June.

And Newsarama has learned that DC has given Abnett a DC exclusive contract, as he’s not only writing the new Titanstitle, but also Aquaman and Earth 2: Society.

Because of Wally’s return, Titans will be  « central » to the events unfolding after the revelation that Watchmencharacters have manipulated the DCU, according to Abnett.

The monthly Titans title will spin out of the events of Rebirthwhile also picking up on what happened in Abnett’s just-finished Titans Hunt. Wally will join with other team members from Titans Hunt, including Bumblebee, Nightwing, Donna Troy, Gnarrk, Hawk, Dove, Arsenal, Tempest, Herald, and other familiar Titans characters.

Newsarama talked with Abnett about Wally’s role on the team, about his early tease of the character’s return, and why the Titans are so important for DC’s new acceptance of legacy characters.
