[SPECIAL ARCHIVE EPISODE] How to sustain a legendary 50-year writing career with Marv Wolfman


Listen Later

This episode I talk to my good friend Marv Wolfman. Marv is a living legend in comics and one of the most successful creators working today. I say that without an ounce of sarcasm, either.

Marv has had a 50+ year career. He created the Teen Titans, Deathstroke, Nova, Blade, and hundreds of others, as well as writing every character you can imagine. He was the editor-in-chief of Marvel comics for a time, as well as Disney comics, and more. He's also the architect of the Crisis on Infinite Earths, with CW is retelling through all five of their shows. 

This was a treat to record, and I’ve been planning this whole relaunch on this interview. I was a wee bit nervous, but I think it turned out amazing.

Listen to this episode if you want to learn:

* How to develop a character that enters the public zeitgeist

* The biggest change to creating in the last 50 years

* How to break down a story that keeps readers guessing

* How to build a sustainable career

…and more.
