Scott Snyder has acknowledged the report that he and Greg Capullo are leaving the ‘Batman‘ comic series. So what does the future hold in store for Snyder and Capullo? Well, we do know that Capullo is doing a creator-owned series with Mark Millar however, that should only take up about six months of his time. After that, he and Snyder will be working together once more.
First off, it appears that Snyder found out the report along with the rest of us.
U know u missed smthg when yr off twitter for a snowday w/the kid & you come back to inboxes full of PITCHES from folks who want yr job lol

Looks like he won’t have to come up with much new for awhile either with whatever he ends up doing:
So you know, I’m stealing ALL your goddam pitches. :) — Scott Snyder (@Ssnyder1835) January 24, 2016
Snyder and Capullo have been working on the title together since 2011 so it should be taken quite literally when he says:
But thank you guys sincerely for all the kind words on the time @GregCapullo and I have gotten to spend together on Batman. Means a lot
— Scott Snyder (@Ssnyder1835) January 24, 2016
The best part for ‘Batman’ fans is that it would appear that the two will be going out in style:
We still have some time left together – 50 and 51, which are truthfully 2 of my favorites, 50 is all out fun – and we’re just enjoying it. — Scott Snyder (@Ssnyder1835) January 24, 2016
What is Snyder up to next? Well that sly dog isn’t saying much:
I see that a bunch of you have questions about what I’m doing next – which is touching in itself, so thank you – but my feeling is 1/3

while I genuinely couldn’t be more excited for what’s coming (been planning it a long time) the next couple months are really about 2/3 — Scott Snyder (@Ssnyder1835) January 24, 2016
celebrating my brother in arms @GregCapullo & the time we have left on Batman together. My focus here will be all on that. Hope u understand

It sounds like we won’t know much more about what he has in the works until this run of ‘Batman’ comes to an end. However, he does give us one huge hint. Is this the ‘Detective Comics’ rumor or something else entirely?
The funny thing is @GregCapullo is only gone for like 6 months before we start working on our biggest DC stuff together, so it’s barely 1/2 — Scott Snyder (@Ssnyder1835) January 24, 2016
a break! Hope to wow u even more w/what @GregCapullo and I have next, but this run together has been the ride of my life & I’m really 2/?
— Scott Snyder (@Ssnyder1835) January 24, 2016
grateful to you guys for it. Learned to be a better writer, better person from @GregCapullo – thanks for supporting us so long. You rock — Scott Snyder (@Ssnyder1835) January 24, 2016
We can’t wait to see what Snyder is up to either and are more than happy to hear that his next DC project means he’ll continue working with Capullo as they really are a team that knows how to work together.
Do you think that the rumored ‘Detective Comics’ is next on Snyder and Capullo’s plate or will they have something even bigger to tackle? Share your thoughts below!
