Writer/Producer of many animated TV shows, DC comics and two live-action movies! Most recently co-wrote the animated feature GREEN LANTERN: BEWARE MY POWER!

I'm thrilled to announce that with the upcoming Spider-Man '94 Annual #1, I will be returning to the world of Spider-Man. After 30 years, I'm finally getting to resolve the ending of my iconic animated series and tell the story of Peter finding Mary Jane. I want to thank everyone involved at Marvel for making this possible, especially my editor, Danny Khazem. I was given free rein to tell the story that I've always wanted to tell, and it has been a real blast!
@PeterAttiaMD Your being hired at CBS is some indication of what a craphouse that network has become under Bari Weiss. It will be another network like Fox that will be filled with losers, liars and criminals.
I woke up this morning to the fantastic news that my new show, WEATHER HUNTERS, has been NOMINATED FOR AN NAACP IMAGE AWARD for BEST ANIMATED SERIES! And now YOU get to vote for it!

Happy Birthday (December 28th) to my very good friend, the late, great STAN LEE! I was hand-picked by Stan to head up the writing of the SPIDER-MAN animated series of the nineties, an honor for which I will always be eternally grateful.
Our two day celebration of SPIDER-MAN: THE ANIMATED SERIES' 30th ANNIVERSARY at LA Comic Con was a huge success. Saturday, I moderated a panel featuring our wonderful voice actors: GARY IMHOFF ("Harry Osborn" and "The Green Goblin"), CHRISTOPHER DANIEL BARNES ("Spider-Man"), SARATOGA BALLANTINE ("Mary Jane Watson") RODNEY SAULBERRY ("Joe Robbie Robertson") and PATRICK LABYORTEAUX ("Flash Thompson"). Not only are they amazingly talented, but I'm proud to know them all as friends. The crowd loved them and a great time was had by all! I even took everybody on a journey back in time as I screened for the first time ever excerpts from my personal Hi-8mm home videos of our actual recording sessions from back in the day!
While you were all snuggly in bed, I was up early this morning to pick up THIRTEEN badges for the LA Comic Con this weekend at the LA Convention Center in downtown LA. I'm moderating two panels this weekend, one on Saturday and one on Sunday. Both pertain to my SPIDER-MAN: THE ANIMATED SERIES' 30TH ANNIVERSARY. One panel celebrates the Spidey voice actors (including Spider-Man himself, CHRIS BARNES) and the other is spotlighting the writers. The badges are for my panelists. In real life, I don't ever throw parties, so this is the closest I come to hosting an event - which is fun for me, because the convention people handle all the annoying particulars - like renting the hall and managing the crowds! And I rely on Facebook and social media to handle the invitations. So, you're ALL INVITED to come to my party and celebrate SPIDER-MAN:TAS with me at the LA COMIC CON, Saturday and Sunday at 12 NOON, in room 403A. Excelsior!
TODAY is the PREMIERE on PBS of my new animated series, WEATHER HUNTERS, created by AL ROKER! I was an Executive Producer, the Head Writer, and I wrote the pilot and about a zillion other episodes!
