Gail Simone has teased her return to Secret Six.

The writer hinted on Twitter that the project that will follow her imminent departure from Batgirl will be a follow-up to her acclaimed run.



GUYS. The new book is so SECRET that it's totally SECRET how SECRET this SECRET is about this new book full of SECRET SECRETS. #hint â€” Gail Simone (@GailSimone) July 13, 2014

The tweet contains the word 'secret' six times.

Simone wrote the previous Secret Six series up until its conclusion ahead of the New 52 relaunch.



Guys, this rumor that I am writing The Naked Adventures of Pooh Bear and Friends is getting out of hand. â€” Gail Simone (@GailSimone) July 13, 2014

The series starred a group of mercenaries made up of sometime DC villains including Bane, Rag Doll, Catman, Deadshot and Vandal Savage's daughter Scandal Savage.

Simone and artist Fernando Pasarin will exit Batgirl as of September's issue #34.

They will be replaced by co-writers Cameron Stewart and Brenden Fletcher, artist Babs Tarr and colourist Jordie Bellaire.

DC Comics is yet to confirm the new Secret Six series.
