Andy Khouri Joins DC Comics’ Burbank Offices As An Editor

I thought I had just plain missed this, but I guess Andy Khouri only recently announced via twitter that he has taken an editorial job at DC Comics. Khouri was just recently Editor-In-Chief (I think that's what they call that position) at the site ComicsAlliance.

That seems like a good hire for them and a good move for him: he knows the material, he knows at the very least the broad parameters of the job, and he knows a lot of the talent with whom he may end up working. I wish Khouri the best of the luck in his new job and hope I get to cover him for as long as he wants to work in comics. Heidi MacDonald says he'll start out working with Brian Cunningham.

How the Burbank offices settle into place for DC should be one of those stories that has a rolling effect over the next few years. They have a very different profile from which to choose from, I think, just talent-pool wise. There's a potential for workplace culture change, although corporate culture in comics can be an enduring thing and that kind of change never means the same thing to more than a few people at a time. It should at least be fun to watch.
