Inhaltsangabe

Part memoir, part how-to, and part how-not-to, Beyond the Bat: Secrets of a Superhero Scribe is a wide-ranging collection of essays that focus on lessons learned during fifty-plus years of writing for superheroes and superhero-adjacent characters. You’ll read about what it was like to work with the legendary Stan Lee; how to get an Emmy award for writing Batman cartoons; how a superhero obsession can start long before you learn to read, and lots more—like how not to write for William Shatner and even what it might have been like in the Old Testament’s writers’ room!
