In an interview with Comic Vine, Scott Snyder protege Marguerite Bennett revealed that she is penning two one-shots for the month of February. They are Superman: Lois Lane #1 and Batman: Joker's Daughter #1. Granted Joker's Daughter was one of the hot items for Villains Month, but it was also easily the worst title published of the entire lot. I thought Ms. Bennett did a decent job on Batman Annual #2, so maybe she will be able to achieve something with the character that wasn't accomplished before. For a full interview with her, click the source link. DC's full February solicits are set to be released this coming Monday at 5 pm EST.
