About the Author

Gerry Conway wrote Daredevil, Incredible Hulk, Iron Man and others. He was instrumental in Marvel's 1970s horror boom with work on Man-Thing, Tomb of Dracula and Werewolf by Night. His years on Amazing Spider-Man yielded such historic highlights as the groundbreaking death of Gwen Stacy and the debut of the Punisher. He also wrote DC's Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman and Legion of Super-Heroes. For TV, he has written and produced episodes of Diagnosis: Murder, Hercules: The Legendary Journeys, Huntress and Matlock.

Jody Houser decided she wanted to be a writer when she was 8 years old. She earned her MFA in creative writing at Emerson College in Boston, where she completed her master's thesis in screenwriting and was a winner of the Rod Parker Fellowship for Playwriting. She is the creator behind the web comic Cupcake POW! and has contributed to numerous comics anthologies including Womanthology: Heroic and Womanthology: Space for IDW, CMYK: Magenta for Vertigo and Avengers: No More Bullying for Marvel. Her early Marvel credits include The Cavalry: S.H.I.E.L.D. 50th Anniversary one-shot, as well as the James Patterson adaptations Max Ride: Ultimate Flight and Max Ride: Final Flight. She told tales of the alternate-universe Parker family in Amazing Spider-Man: Renew Your Vows and explored the galaxy far, far away in Star Wars: Rogue One Adaptation and Star Wars: Thrawn.

After cutting his teeth at Dark Horse drawing Joker/Mask and several Star Wars comics, Spanish artist Ramon Bachs illustrated runs on Wildstorm's Gen13 and DC's Detective Comics. He soon brought his gritty style to Marvel, teaming with writer Paul Jenkins on the Decimation limited series Generation M. The pair reunited for the smash hit Civil War: Front Line and teamed again for its sequel World War Hulk: Front Line. Bachs illustrated the send-up Marvel Apes limited series and returned to DC to pencil Red Robin and Azrael.
