Gail Simone has just been announced as the new writer for Wonder Woman beginning with issue 13.

Here are some of her quotes about getting this gig.

'The book is about the best goddamned warrior planet Earth has ever known, and she happens to carry a mystical arsenal around just for the hell of it.

If a writer can't make that interesting and fun, they really shouldn't be writing superheroes.

There are layers upon layers of the character, and we'll get to them all. But let's just make it very clear that Diana is the premiere asskicker in the DCU, period. Batman and Superman have other things that make them special. Diana is the one who occasionally carries an axe if someone gives her lip.

This is actually in my first issue, but the quote is, 'When a giant robot attacks Metropolis, send Superman. An alien attack? Get Green Lantern. When a car is hijacked by an escaped loony, turn on the bat signal, by all means. But if an ARMY shows up on your doorstep, that's when you call in Wonder Woman.'

It sounds like she is in it for the long haul and after all of the crap that has happened to the book lately (latenesss and running out of sequence) this is just what it needs and I think Gail Simone is the best person for the job.
