DC has announced that writer Marc Bernardin will take over the writing duties on Static Shock starting with issue #7. Scott McDaniel will stay on as the artist. McDaniel was co-writing the book with John Rozum, however Rozum announced that he left the book shortly after the first issue was released. Bernardin is currently a writer on the Syfy Channel's original series ALPHAS. He has also worked on THE HIGHWAYMEN and THE AUTHORITY comic books.
"... I’d be lying if I said that I didn’t feel a humbling sense of responsibility to get this one right," said Bernardin. "The late Dwayne McDuffie still stands as a titan in this industry – and while I’m not so presumptuous as to think I can write Static as well as he did, I’m hoping I can write a Static he’d get a chuckle out of.”
