Gen 13: Difference between revisions

''Gen 13'' and its spinoffs have also tended to gather a wide variety of talent. To start with, this is the book that made J. Scott Campbell famous before ''[[Danger Girl]]''. [[Warren Ellis]] wrote the first eight issues of ''DV8'', a book starring the titular [[The Psycho Rangers|Psycho Rangers]] and series [[Arch Nemesis]] Ivana Baiul. Adam "''[[Empowered (Comic Book)|Empowered]]''" Warren did two well-received parody miniseries ("[[Wuxia|Grunge]]: [[Heroic Bloodshed|The Movie]]" and "[[Magical Girl|Magical Drama Queen Roxy]]") and was the writer for what turned out to be the final issues of the original series. [[Chris Claremont]] was brought in to write an [[Retool|all-new, all-different]] ''Gen 13'', but the new version [[Replacement Scrappy|wasn't accepted]] by readers. Finally, [[Gail Simone]] launched a [[Continuity Reboot]] of the original team in 2006, which was also critically well-received but [[Too Good to Last]].

The series had been [[Retool|Retooled]] ''yet again'', along with the rest of the Wildstorm universe, as part of the ''[[After the End|World's End]]'' [[Crisis Crossover]]. ''After that'', it seems to have been folded into the DC Universe along with the rest of Wildstorm as a result of ''[[Flashpoint (Comic Bookcomics)|Flashpoint]]''; there are no plans to revive the book, but some ''Gen 13'' characters have shown up in the "[[Fan Nickname|DCnU]]".
