DC Characters that I could cook with:

Firestorm

As much as I like Ronnie Raymond, I’ve always been partial to Jason Rusch. There’s just so much story potential to be mined with this franchise.

DC characters I could cook with:

Batwoman

WHAT? Gene wants to write a Bat-character? Yes.
I’d love to honor all of the great things that Greg Rucka and JH Williams III set up, while channeling that 1970s globetrotting Denny O’Neil Batman vibe.

We have seven 5-Star reviews for Avengers For Dummies so far. Thank you to everyone who has supported this project.

(I appreciate the two reviewers who said I should be writing an Avengers comic book.😂)

DC characters that I could cook with:

Green Arrow

I have a 12 issue arc that I’ve been wanting to tell for ages. Gives each member of the Arrow fam their chance to shine and reinforces why Ollie is the most badass rebel WITH a cause in the DCU.

DC characters that I could cook with:

Birds of Prey

Not only is Black Canary a top DC character for me, but this was the premier book to showcase the amazing women of the DC Universe.

DC characters I could cook with:

The Outsiders

Bar none, my favorite DC superhero team.
I’d really love to take the book back to its orignal mission statement, a team who runs missions that the Justice League can’t be seen doing.

DC characters that I could cook with:

Green Lantern Corps.

Yes, the entire Corps. I would find a way to balance it so all of the Lanterns would shine brightly.

Inspired by @drew_edwards’ post of DC characters I could cook with:

Next on my list is Black Lightning.

I’d like to write something that’s basically Lean On Me meets The Faculty.

Inspired by Drew Edwards’ post, DC characters that I could cook with:
First on my list is Steel.
This book in my hands would take Afrofuturism to a whole new level.
I’d also love to really build up a “tech wing” side of the DCU and have John Henry & Natasha as two of the curators.

Another script of mine made it to the quarterfinals of a competition.

Universe, please make this happen.

It was an honor to write Avengers For Dummies.

Hope to have my name on more books with Marvel logo sometime in the near future.

It’s still not resonating with me how much this book is resonating with others.

Thank you all so much for your graciousness and support.

Already getting 5-star reviews for Avengers For Dummies.

“Though it says for Dummies, it’s a book even the most die-hard Avenger fans can get into. However, it would definitely be an excellent book for fans of the MCU intimidated by reading the comics.”

Humbled and appreciative of your support

In Avengers for Dummies, I might have gotten carried away with author acknowledgements.

Dream gig? Total understatement. Been an Avengers fan since picking up my 1st issue (#189) from a back issue bin. They became my favorite superhero team. I always said I’d write ‘em someday. Thanks everyone for your support.
