'Manhunter' to Return in June
Hunted men everywhere cower in fear
DC Comics' Manhunter was originally cancelled with issue #25 in 2006. After an outpouring of protest from fans, DC resurrected the series for five more issues with the promise of more if the five were successful.
The series did well enough to extend its life, but the hiatus between issue #30 and #31 has been prolonged to say the least. In the meantime, Kate Spencer has been hanging out with the girls from Birds of Prey.
Following up on our DC Nation panel report, the long wait for Manhunter fans is finally over, as the title will resume shipping in June. Marc Andreyko returns as writer with Michael Gaydos serving as artist.
The recent solicitation for the first issue hints at a few of the new situations Kate Spencer will be getting into when Manhunter resumes:
Los Angeles is Manhunter’s town — so when Kate Spencer learns of the disappearance of hundreds of women along the Mexican border, she’s on the case both as law-breaking D.A. and costumed vigilante.
Meanwhile, Kate’s bloodline tie to the JSA returns to haunt her — and it looks like her sidekick’s most notorious supervillain ex-boss is doing the same to him.
Exclusive pages from the forthcoming issue can be viewed at Newsarama.

Back when we thought the same art team would return when the title revived, Mark told us about some of his plans for the new series. It sounds VERY cool.
