Steve Orlando on Writing Comics for Marvel and DC and Beyond

Jonathan welcomes acclaimed comics writer and editor Steve Orlando to talk about what really makes a great Big Two writer.

They get into finding a character’s “core wound,” balancing decades of lore with a fresh take, managing dense event books without boring readers, and the real job of editors versus writers.

Steve also shares insights on collaborating with artists, building a sustainable writing routine, breaking into Marvel and DC from indie comics, and how to stay motivated through years of rejection.
