DC Comics recruits Tom Taylor (Injustice: Gods Among Us) to be the new writer for Earth 2. James Robinson is leaving the title he started with artist Nicola Scott and leaving DC Comics.

“I’m a big fan of what James and Nicola have created so far with Earth 2, and I’m honored to be adding to this world, with its rich characters and its many mysteries,” Taylor told MTV Geek, ” Earth 2 is entering a new age, and I’m thrilled to usher in this new age with my good friend, and fellow Australian, Nicola Scott. It was good of DC Comics to give Australia our own Earth to play with. We’ll try not to wreck the joint.”

Taylor takes over the series with issue 17 in October.
