What other characters in the DC sandbox are you itching to work with?
The funny thing about that question is that there are one or two standard answers, and for me that has always been the Legion and Aquaman for DC and Captain America and Iron Man for Marvel.
but, before that, he said... What else do you have simmering in your pot? There is a new series in the works that will be announced soon and debut near the end of the year. It’s completely different than “Birds of Prey” and the sort of thing I’ve wanted to do since “Negation” at Crossgen. It’s with a team that I’ve loved since I was starting to read comics, though I think they’ve been very underutilized since then, but I still have a huge love for them.
Basically, I can’t wait to talk about it, but I can’t yet.
Hummm, who could that be? Doom Patrol is coming back through Giffen and Infinity inc. is gone... Any ideas? Omega Men?

ahh actually i... know... but i promised not to say so..!
he's a super talented writer and he was SO nice to me and my friend!! and he's pretty cute =3=!! he was chilling with tom peyer at Emerald city and they answered psycho nerd legion questions for me! so if you ever see him at a con, he's super nice!
DC usually tries to do something with them about once per decade...and they were broken out of the mothballs during Waid's Brave and Bold run....seems like they were kind of setup for other things at the end of that B&B arc.

I am hardly ever going to be on a convention. Being in Brazil, that is. Can you hint at least?

!!!!!!!!!
More info, please.
This came from a LITG column. He is working on it with Matthew Clark (a good reason for Clark not being on Reign in Hell as previously announced). Giffen has always said this was his dream job - even joking about messing up with Morrison, finally.

Bedard has been on my radar since his awesome Crossgen work (Negation being his #1, but he had some other great things going on there). If he took over a Legion series and had a chance to pick up some steam, I know it would be great. Too bad Paul Pelletier couldn't do it with him with the right inker.
Giffen on DP? Heeeel-ell yes.

As for Doom Patrol, I love the silver age version. I've got several of the archives and have several more on order from Amazon, but they're taking forever to get here. They keep changing the shipping date.

Oh, I loooooved the recent Metal Men miniseries! What a gorgeous artwork by Duncan Rouleau! And the story is pretty neat, much better than Dan Jurgens mini years ago.

I think Bedard is about 40 or so...he said his first issue of the Legion was 210 or something...so whatever group he's talking about had to have been around in the seventies, so that rules out L.E.G.I.O.N. I don't even think L.E.G.I.O.N. is in continuity anymore...and that's probably a mistake on DC's part.
It also rules out the Omega Men.
But the group Bedard is talking about...
It has to be some group like the DP, the Challs, the Metal Men, The Secret Six...something like that.

L.E.G.I.O.N. is still in continuity. It has appeared very briefly in 52, more recently with a Comet/Brainy encounter on Mystery in Space and will show up again on Rann/Thanagar War. Both by Jim Starlin. And, please, let Metal Men stay with Duncan Rouleau. Really good stuff from him.
