Man Hunting (or: Running out of Creative Titles)

Check out ComicBookResources.com's article on Manhunter, featuring an interview with series writer Marc Andreyko.

Right off the bat, Andreyko quashes any comparisons to Marvel's lawyer/super-hero:

"Well, for one thing, DD has a penis," laughed Andreyko as he spoke with CBR News. "And, seriously, yeah, both characters are lawyers, but that's where any similarities end. Kate, unlike most heroes, has no problem taking final justice into her hands when she feels a villain has thwarted the system. For her, the things she does as Manhuunter are a logical extension of her work as a prosecutor."

He goes on to explain how Manhunter will further tie into Identity Crisis:

"The arc (#5-10) is the trial of the Shadow Thief for the murder of Firestorm. It will have all sorts of interesting guest stars, both testifying and fighting Manhunter, and deal with the difficulties of prosecuting villains in the DCU. And someone will die, too [smiles]."

Lastly, but not leastly, he discussed Manhunter artist Jesus Saiz:

"I have never actually spoken to Jesus. He gets my plots/scripts from his agent/translator. That said, if I only ever get to work with Jesus for the rest of my comics career, I'll die happy. He is a phenomenal talent. His instincts, his story telling, the 'acting' he brings to the characters.... He is truly a brilliant artist and I'm glad to see that his star is beginning to rise. He deserves it all."

Has anyone been reading this series? Sorry to say I haven't, but I may be adding it soon. How is it?
