Of course it fucking was
Any update on Dan Didio
There's no actual evidence of that. There's no evidence that Luke Fox Batman was gonna be a big facet of 5G in general beyond speculation.
Weren’t they grooming Duke instead, at least originally? I feel like that was part of the reason why we got “Ric” Grayson
No one’s replacing him. Jim Lee’s just the sole publisher now.
He ok'd Super Sons in the first place
He's not ignoring it, Billy's timeline makes 0 sense so you can plop it wherever you like.
>Weren’t they grooming Duke instead, at least originally?
Again, we don't know. We know next-to-nothing official about what 5G was actually gonna consist of. Even the most detailed leaks we could get from Bleeding Cool was comprised of *a lot* of assumptions on Rich's end. I doubt it went as far back as Duke though, as his prominence in Batman began and pretty much ended in the first year of Rebirth almost three years ago.
It's a 12 issue series right? No way the scripts are fully written and finalized with editorial/the artists this far in advance.

So he's ignoring it.
Johns must have a hand on Didio firing but also happened because Didio pissed a lot of his formerly loyalists like Snyder and Tomasi by trying to micro-manage events and hiring Bendis.
Why would Snyder be pissed at Didio? Dan caters to him constantly
