Antony Johnston announced on Twitter today that he will be co-writing Daredevil #505-507 with regular scribe Andy Diggle. The current arc ends with Daredevil #504, which means that Johnston will be coming on board with the start of the next arc (which early indicators suggest might take our hero on a little trip…). Whether the next arc will only be three issues or whether this will just be a temporary reinforcement, only the guilty parties themselves can tell.
If I may throw around a guess here, I suspect part of the reason for this roster change might be Diggle’s schedule (he has yet to finish Dark Reign: Hawkeye #5 for instance). One thing that’s for sure, however, is that my review of Daredevil #502 will be up shortly. I will see you then!

Seriously though haven’t heard of this guy but I quick trip to your link and he looks quite interesting…
I have to say, strangely enough, I am hugely pumped for this to happen. Even excited, which is very cool. I haven’t seen any solicits, i wonder where Murdock will travel…
