Asked about more DC comics work, the writer said he finished his last DC work yesterday, and there is nothing more planned. He feels he needs to step back in general. Although, Rucka still wants to keep working with J.H. And while there is nothing in the works, there is still a five-part Batwoman story that has been broken down, but they were moved off of "Detective" before starting it. “It’s basically Alice’s origin,” showing the kidnapping from her point of view and the years she spent away." Rucka loves the character of Batwoman, and he set out to create a character that would endure, with a strong enough origin that anyone could write her. As for the prospect of working with DC again, Greg said he’s been around the industry long enough to know, “Never say never.”

Status of Batwoman? Sattler: "We have plans for Batwoman." Johns: "We want Greg (Rucka) to write it, but he's focusing on his career right now." Sattler: "There's no shelving."

The reason Batman, for one, is so popular is because he has Alfred, Gordon, Dick, Joker, Penguin, Two-Face, Catwoman, Riddler, Poison Ivy, etc etc etc Making two of three arcs about the same villain isn't, IMO, the right tack to give a character a multifaceted world. It's much more reminiscent of a movie character who only has that one story and maybe some sequels that involve the same villain all over again, but in comic books (successful ones anyway) the enemies vary.
