Going global: Warren Ellis announces he's fulfilled the terms of his agreement with DC, so ending his exclusive contract:

"This is no slight on DC. This isn't the usual mainstream comics thing of Fuck these guys, I'm going across the street to work with the other guys, until I get bored with them and go back to DC again. This has been the standard dance in commercial comics for thirty years, people shuttling between DC and Marvel like they're the only two games in the world. DC is the only New York publisher I'm interested in working with, because they're the only ones supporting original creator-owned work. And I will continue to work with them until they're sick of me."
