Abernathy answered that it was "pretty much planned" to turn out this way.

There's this big comic idea I've been working on for the last few years—briefly called Warcop, and now known as The New Bible—where I've now gone through about five different versions of the first-issue script without getting what I wanted from it.
  28. ^ Dueben, Alex (29 January 2009). "Talking with "Hellblazer" Artist Sean Murphy". Comic Book Resources. Archived from the original on 31 January 2009. I think that "Warcop" is on hold, but there's another Morrison script in the works.
  29. ^ O'Shea, Tim (18 January 2010). "Talking Comics with Tim: Sean Murphy". Comic Book Resources. Archived from the original on 21 January 2010. I signed with DC for two years to do Warcop and DV8 (with Wildstorm). Again, both scripts were delayed so Karen created some Hellblazer for me. When that was finished she offered me Joe the Barbarian because Grant was putting Warcop on hold.
