More belated congratulazioni go out to Francesco Francavilla for joining the new Detective Comics creative team. Apparently Francesco will be doing the art for a new series of Commissioner Gordon backup strips...

Here's what writer Scott Snyder has to say...
"I’m a huge fan of Francesco’s work and have been for quite some time. His style is dark and daring with a good amount of noir to it, but there’s also a striking physicality to his art - his characters always look very real, very vulnerable and human. Which is why I always thought he’d be perfect for the job; because this story is dark and dramatic with some big revelations, but it’s also about Jim Gordon, the man, coming to terms with some very tough skeletons from his past… Or rather, one skeleton in particular - someone who has just now returned to Gotham, too… So I simply could not be more excited about Francesco’s involvement."
Francesco is easily one of the best artists out there at this sort of thing, and i'm sure he will have a blast on this gig.
Again this couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
I just hope he remembers us little fellas when he is rubbing shoulders with the bigwigs.
