Not Getting My Jolleys

So somewhere around 2-3 years ago, my eyes bugged out of my head when I heard DC was going to be relaunching a Firestorm series. I was confused when all hell broke loose in the first couple of issues, and I had no clue as to where Ronnie Raymond was. Then I saw what Dan Jolley was doing with the series, and I experienced a renewed fascination with the concept of the hero and his powers. Bloodhound I can take or leave; he made for an interesting arc in Firestorm. CBR has some quotes from Jolley apparently posted on his blog, which I can't seem to get access to.
"My farewell. Issue #13 will be my last one of 'Firestorm.'
"I'm leaving at a really good place, though. 'Learning Curve,' the arc that just started, will be wrapped up with a great big bow, and I'm very pleased with what DC and I were able to accomplish. I'll miss the book -- I had some things coming up that I was tremendously excited about -- but I have total faith in Steve Wacker to shepherd this title along and make sure it's great."
My hat's off to Dan. I wish there were more innovative re-introductions of heroes like what he managed to pull off.
