First off, Congrats on your Award! No one deserves it more. Now for the question, you said that you quit Batgirl due to creative differences, did DC want you to make changes you were not comfortable with? Or did you want to do something that DC didn't like

I do appreciate that people are interested in these discussions, and I hope people understand that right now, I’m a little too close to it all and really need to kind of put the whole thing in a box for right now. I am focusing on what I am working on now, almost all new stuff I am very excited for, new things I have never attempted.


I am tremendously proud of the Batgirl work we did, I am thrilled I got to work with the artists I got to work with. It sucks, but sometimes you just have a terrible mix of editorial and creative visions, where they simply don’t line up.  So it was a struggle.


Other than that, I am exceptionally happy, this is the best group of editors I have ever gotten to work with, champions all of them, and art teams I adore. I am a million times blessed.


And I am very optimistic about the new creative team, they are being given a LOT more freedom to write a happier Batgirl and that is long overdue, and the preview art looks smashing.


I just don’t have a lot more I want to say about it right now, I hope everyone understands.
