With Brian Michael Bendis leaving Marvel for DC Comics, Dan Slott becomes Marvel Comics’ most tenured writer.
Slott had this to say on Bendis departure.
.@BRIANMBENDIS, I will always read EVERYTHING you write no matter where, because you're one of the best ever.

Slott also had a humorous theory about Bendis’ DC as well.
Theory:
That weight @BRIANMBENDIS has been losing?
He's been shipping himself to DC in installments.

This follows statements by Marvel corporately and by its former EIC and current Chief Creative Officer Joe Quesada. At press time current Marvel EIC Axel Alonso and VP Tom Brevoort have not issued formal statements.
