Ivan Cohen

A writer of comic books, prose, and animation, Ivan Cohen is best known for introducing the character “Kid Quick” — a non-binary superhero who would later be established as the future inheritor of the Flash mantle — to the DC Comics universe in late 2020. In 2022, Cohen co-wrote Kid Quick's first starring vehicle, DC's MULTIVERSITY: TEEN JUSTICE.

Cohen’s body of work includes the bestselling Space Jam: A New Legacy graphic novel, the acclaimed THE BATMAN AND SCOOBY-DOO MYSTERIES comic book series, and the storybook-style BATMAN RETURNS: ONE DARK CHRISTMAS EVE – THE ILLUSTRATED HOLIDAY CLASSIC. He has also written comics featuring members of the Justice League and the Avengers.

Cohen lives in Manhattan with his wife and their son. He has been called “amazing” and “genius” by The New York Times, though some would argue that, since those were actually rankings in the newspaper’s “Spelling Bee” game, it would be misleading to use them here. The amazing genius humbly disagrees.
