So continuing further news and shake ups this week as well, DC has announced former Marvel EIC Bob Harras as the new EIC of DC Comics, a position that, in name, hasn't existed since 2002 at DC Comics.

I always wondered why DC didn't have an EiC, especially since DiDio seemed to act like the EiC most of the time. Just figured DC was structured differently than Marvel, guess not.

Harras, it's Bob Harras. With an A.
And I don't know about this. His tenure at Marvel isn't the best in terms of creativity.

My bad, I knew that but wrote it the usual way.

I'm fairly unbiased, as he was well on his way out when I was on my way into comics so I never really read very much under his EIC at Marvel outside of the two core X-books I was reading and Ultimate X-Men. And back then I gave very very little attention to that kind of thing so I don't recall much.

It'll be interesting to see how, if at all, things change or move around with this, coupled with the other news, and see how DC's future looks a year from now.
