Next week’s guests for our Zoom Chat are two of the biggest names in the world of comic books and graphic novels. They’ll discuss the differences and problems in writing for a visual medium and writing for novels and short stories.
Over the past 33 years, Mark Waid has written a wider variety of well-known characters than any other American author, from Superman to the Justice League to Spider-Man to Archie and hundreds of others. His award-winning graphic novel with artist Alex Ross, KINGDOM COME, is one of the best-selling comics of all time.
Peter David’s notable comic book work includes an award-winning 12-year run on The Incredible Hulk, as well as runs on Aquaman, Supergirl, Spider-Man and X-Factor. His Star Trek work includes comic books, novels such as IMZADI, and co-creation of the New Frontier series. His television work includes series such as Babylon 5, Young Justice, Ben 10: Alien Force and Nickelodeon’s Space Cases, which he co-created with Bill Mumy. David has earned multiple awards for his work, including a 1992 Eisner Award, a 1993 Wizard Fan Award, a 1996 Haxtur Award, a 2007 Julie Award and a 2011 GLAAD Media Award.
