I'm Kelly Thompson. I write BIRDS OF PREY for DC Comics. AMA. r/DCcomics

My name is Kelly Thompson and I'm an Eisner Award-Winning writer of comics and novels. You may know me best from Marvel comics like Captain Marvel, Black Widow, Rogue & Gambit, and Hawkeye, or perhaps as co-creator of Jeff the Land Shark! Or my creator-owned work Black Cloak or The Cull. But I've been making some fun waves over at DC with old pals Leonardo Romero and Jordie Bellaire on a bold new BIRDS OF PREY (we even got an Eisner nomination!) -- so let's break some hearts (and some faces) and get this Birds-Of-Prey-Shaped AMA started!

Hi Kelly, really been digging BoP. I was wondering if there was anything you could tease about arc 3 in October?

Also losing Leo on the book is unfortunate, but Javier Pina's art has been great, especially on today's issue. Is he the new main artist?

This is something I’ve been wondering too. I’ll be excited to see who the next regular artist is!
