'Superman' writer change rumoured

Superman is rumoured to be undergoing a change of writers.
The DC Comics title will be penned by Teen Titans scribe Scott Lobdell following the release of September's 'New 52' #0 issues, Bleeding Cool claims.
Dan Jurgens and Keith Giffen currently serve as the creative team on Superman, following the departure of writer George Perez in October last year.
Lobdell has recently penned Hood And The Outlaws, Teen Titans and Superboy for DC, and is renowned for his work on Marvel Comics' X-Men line.
Superman launched as part of DC's company-wide relaunch in September last year. Its eighth issue arrives in stores on May 23.
DC Comics is yet to officially confirm the change of writers.

This book has been pretty lame considering the changes made to Superman's history. Why bother? He deserved something spectacular in terms of art and story, like Snyder's run on Batman, or Azzarello's take on Wonder Woman. Bring it on. It would be epic if Kenneth Rocafort suplied the pencils.

Maybe you shouldn't post a photo of an Action Comics cover and claim that a Superman writer is changing. It's misleading.
