Dr. Sulman Aziz Mirza interviews Paul Jenkins, creator of The Sentry and more.

Paul Jenkins is an award-winning comic book writer and narrative visionary whose work has shaped some of the most iconic characters in modern pop culture. Known for redefining emotional storytelling in comics, Jenkins made his mark with Marvel’s Wolverine: Origin, the Eisner Award-winning Inhumans, and Hellblazer at Vertigo. He’s also the co-creator of The Sentry, the psychologically complex hero whose dual identity—part Superman, part schizophrenic ticking time bomb—has gained renewed attention following his big-screen debut in Marvel’s Thunderbolts. Jenkins brought a deeply human lens to superhero narratives, making The Sentry a standout exploration of mental illness, power, and identity.

Beyond comics, he’s written for major video game titles like The Darkness, God of War, and Twisted Metal Black, continuing his mission to push the boundaries of storytelling across all media.
