Hi. I’m Marv Wolfman. Writer/editor/creator of comics, animation, video games, books and more

I’m totally thrilled by the news that Nova is being developed for a Marvel movie. I created him for my super-hero fanzines back in my high school days and always loved writing him. Can’t wait to see him on the big screen.

2. I also loved Lobo, but then again I was the editor who okayed his very first appearance in The Omega Men, which I co-created with Joe Staton, so I may be a bit biased. Actually no! He was great. Go see the movie. We had a ton of fun and I think you will, too.

1. Noel and I drove to LA for the DC/WB screening of Supergirl on the WB lot. Two thumbs definitely up. To all those who put her down before even seeing her, guess what: Milly Alcock was great. Really great.

Quick recap. On our way to my 80th birthday dinner, our fairly new car died. AAA sent a pickup to take us to the dealership. Because of the late hour we left it there and a friend took us home. Three days later: the car is still at the dealership.

Noel and I went to watch Superman again at a theater to see it on the large screen before it heads to streaming tomorrow. It’s really a lot of fun. Maybe even better the second time. The theater has closed caption which made watching it for me so much easier. So good.

Back from Comic Con Revolution which, as always, is a great con. One highlight for me was running into the cast of Teen Titans Go! A great show that always makes me laugh. Tara (Raven) Strong. Scott (Robin) Menville. Greg (Beast Boy) Cipes. Me. Khary (Cyborg) Payton. Hynden (Starfire) Walch.

So loving the Superman trailer. He is human. Someone you care about. You can see his frustrations and his joys. Just wonderful. And on a purely personal note, yay Cat Grant!

I haven't been doing a lot of cons lately, but this weekend I'll be attending Comiccon Revolution in Ontario, California. You'll find me at my tables, B17 & B18. I also have a Black Cat panel on Saturday.

While surfing comic book sites I was thrilled to see my story "Man And Superman" is listed as one The Beat's ten best Superman stories. It's always been my favorite and I'm thrilled others are finding and liking it.

For those who have asked, no, I won't be going to either Wondercon or Comicon San Diego. I love both those cons but they sadly aren't in the cards for me this year. Hopefully next time.

What am I working on? Well I can’t say much but it’s a 250 page original graphic novel featuring all new characters I created specifically for this story. The script is finished and it’s now in the hands of the artist. And I’m really really happy with it. More to come.

Just want to remind folk that DC's Christmas special, "Batman Smells, Robin Laid An Egg," can be found today at your local comic book shop. It features 8 Christmas themed stories, including "Deadman Walking," written by me. Hope you like it as much as I did writing it.

Liking Prime’s new series, Cross. It really feels like Patterson’s early books. Aldis Hodge, who I loved in Leverage, is a great Alex Cross. Highly recommended!

I just received my contributor copy of DC’s new Christmas special, “Batman Smells Robin Laid An egg.” There are eight stories in this book, and my ten-pager is “Deadman Walking.” You’ll find the it at your LCS on December 4th. Hope you’ll like it as much as I did writing it.

Just binged the 8-episode Netflix show A Man On The Inside starring Ted Danson. It’s a really sweet, wonderful and touching series, in many ways the kind of show they “don’t make anymore.” Give it a try.

Really excited that my Christmas Deadman story will be on sale December 4 at your local comic book shop. This is not only my very first Christmas story but also the first time I’ve written Deadman story.
