Continuing this trend, Johnson wrote comic book tie-ins to and , as well as episodes of the latter.
In 2011, Johnson went into writing comics full time, writing Supergirl for DC. He wrote the Star Trek: Ongoing series for IDW, tying into the films set in the alternate reality, as well as:

Johnson personally considers the current films not set in a split timeline, but in a very similar reality, which allows him to ignore elements of canon that should hold true for both realities.
