Previously DC Comics announced that Rob Liefeld is going cosmic (of sorts, as he said they are actually more grounded) on Deathstroke, Grifter and The Savage Hawkman.

Now we get the full creative teams on the titles beginning on their May #9 issues.

Via The Source:

On GRIFTER, Liefeld will be joined by co-writer Frank Tieri, whose previous DC Comics work includes JSA CLASSIFIED, GOTHAM UNDERGROUND and BATMAN AND THE OUTSIDERS. Scott Clark will remain the ongoing series artist.

Co-writer Mark Poulton will share plotting duties with Liefeld on THE SAVAGE HAWKMAN. Poulton’s notable recent work includes a reboot of Liefeld’s AVENGELYNE for Image Comics. HAWKMAN will be illustrated by Joe Bennett, whose prior DC Comics work includes TEEN TITANS, HAWKMAN and JUSTICE LEAGUE: GENERATION LOST.

And on DEATHSTROKE, Liefeld will shoulder both writing and illustration duties, kicking off a new storyline with a battle royale between the mercenary against intergalactic bounty hunter Lobo.
