DC Entertainment adds more exclusive talent to its creative roster, announcing today that author James Tynion IV will create comic book content solely for the company’s DC and Vertigo imprints. Tynion has written for titles such as Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Batman Eternal and Constantine: The Hellblazer, and is the current writer of fan-favorite Detective Comics since its relaunch in June.

Tynion’s association with the Dark Knight is extensive, beginning his career co-writing BATMAN’s “Night of the Owls” storyline, as well as working with other Bat family members. His current run on Detective Comics displays an epic team-up that has never been seen before in Gotham. As a new threat arises, Batman will seek the help of Batwoman to recruit Spoiler, Red Robin, Cassandra Cain and even the villainous Clayface to push the young vigilantes to be the next generation of great heroes.

Tynion began his run on Detective Comics in June with issue #934. The series ships twice monthly.

Tynion has stated that this deal does not impact his current BOOM! Studios series.
