Tony Isabella began working for Marvel Comics on October 31, 1972.  He shares his thoughts about working at Marvel and about some of the people he worked alongside.    What was it like working for editors Roy Thomas, Stan Lee and Len Wein?  Among the Marvel Comics we discuss that Tony wrote are Ghost Rider, The Champions, Luke Cage, Power Man and Black Goliath. Learn why one of his characters in Ghost Rider was changed at the end of story. Tony also wrote for DC and shares his thoughts about working for the publisher over the years. Tony pitched Black Lightning to DC when asked to write for another character.   Why did DC prefer his idea for Black Lightning rather than the other pitch?  Why did Tony initially leave the series in 1978 and what were his ultimate plans for the series villain during its 1995 revival?   Tony explains why he has a problem with the way Black Lightning has been portrayed in other DC magazines and why his 2018 six-part story Cold Dead Hands is true to the character's core values.  We also discuss the future of single-issue comics, Super Hero movies, Tony's Blog and series of books he plans to write about cheesy monster movies! All of this in this jam-packed interview plus my Kicking Back With the Creator questions.    Creator Talks Theme Song: "Jazz Relax" from LoopsLab  Creator Talks logo by The Design Punk   Please rate and review Creator Talks on Apple Podcasts Read more from Tony at tonyisabella.blogspot.com
