New 'JLA' creative team unveiled

DC Comics has unveiled writer James Robinson and artist Mark Bagley as the new Justice League Of America (JLA) creative team.

Robinson has previously worked on JLA spinoff Cry For Justice, featuring a breakaway team led by Hal Jordan and Green Arrow, while Bagley is known for his work on the Trinity mini-series, which starred almost every major character from the DC universe.

"It's a thrill to be given the reins of DC's flagship team book and to know that my partner in crime (fighting) will be the esteemed Mark Bagley, who's dynamic storytelling skills I intend to make full use of," Robinson said.

"It's further exciting/gratifying for me that I can dove-tail the events of Cry For Justice into the main book where post-Blackest Night will emerge a new team and a new exciting direction as they get caught up in the next wave of events building throughout the DCU."

Robinson replaces regular scribe Dwayne McDuffie, whose run ended with issue #33 following his dismissal by DC. Len Wein is currently filling in until the new partnership of Robinson and Bagley takes the reins.
