Is Tom Taylor Planning to Kill the DC Universe?

Tom Taylor has been writing excessively brutal Injustice comics for DC Comics since 2013, but what if Taylor were allowed to apply his bloodthirsty pen to the regular DC Universe? That's just what's going to happen in the near future, according to Taylor himself. It started with Taylor's response to Newsarama's Chris Arrant, who asked comic creators to post a fact readers probably didn't know about them. Taylor joked: "I'm not Tom King," leading to a snarky response about King's propensity to kill off characters in comics such as Heroes in Crisis.

But Taylor cast doubt on his own "I'm not Tom King" proclamation in his response, in which King hinted that fans who are "attached to characters" may want to avoid an unannounced project coming up after Taylor's work in Batman Annual #3, which hit stores today.

So is Tom Taylor planning to kill the DC Universe? It certainly seems so. And it's no surprise, considering Taylor's motivation is explicitly to make comic book fans cry.

R.I.P., DC Universe.

And so, Jude Terror has moved on to a more important mission: turning Bleeding Cool into a pro wrestling dirt sheet!
