À propos de l?auteur

Born in 1926, Bob Haney grew up in Philadelphia and entered the comics field in 1948, writing war, crime, and western stories for a wide variety of publishers. Haney is perhaps best known for his role in the creation of Metamorpho, Eclipso and the Teen Titans, his long runs on Batman and Robin, Suicide Squad, Tomahawk and Mystery in Space, and his contributions to DC's line of war comics.

Born in 1911 in Brooklyn, New York, Gardner Fox was probably the single most imaginative and productive writer in the Golden Age of comics. In the 1940s, he created or co-created dozens of long-running features for DC Comics, including the Flash, Hawkman, the Sandman, and Doctor Fate, as well as penning most of the adventures of comics' first super-team, the Justice Society of America. He was also the second person to script Batman, beginning somewhere around the Dark Knight Detective's third story. For other companies over the years Fox also wrote Skyman, the Face, Jet Powers, Dr. Strange, Doc Savage and many others—including Crom the Barbarian, the first sword and sorcery series in comics. Following the revival in the late 1950s of the superhero genre, Fox assembled Earth's Mightiest Heroes once more and scripted an unbroken 65-issue run of Justice League of America. Though he produced thousands of other scripts and wrote over 100 books, it is perhaps this body of work for which he is best known. Fox passed away in 1986.
