Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A fascinating story of growing up as a gay fan of comic books in the 1960s, building a fifty-year career as an award-winning writer, and interacting with acclaimed comic book legendsAward-winning writer Bill Schelly relates how comics and fandom saved his life in this engrossing story that b…egins in the burgeoning comic fandom movement of the 1960s and follows the twists and turns of a career that spanned fifty years. Schelly recounts his struggle to come out at a time when homosexuality was considered a mental illness, how the egalitarian nature of fandom offered a safe haven for those who were different, and how his need for creative expression eventually overcame all obstacles. He describes living through the AIDS epidemic, finding the love of his life, and his unorthodox route to becoming a father. He also details his personal encounters with major talents of 1960s comics, such as Steve Ditko (co-creator of Spider-Man), Jim Shooter (writer for DC and later editor-in-chief of Marvel Comics), and Julius Schwartz (legendary architect of the Silver Age of comics). "Part 1 of this book was published in 2001 by TwoMorrows Publishing, and is presented here in slightly revised form. Part 2 is entirely new, written for this edition."--ECIP galley Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Illuminating and informative, this biography of comics writer Otto Binder will appeal to fans of comic books, science fiction, and UFOs. Bill Schelly tells an inspiring story of professional and personal growth, sprinkled with exciting illustrations of beloved DC Comics characters.In this fa…scinating biography, comic book historian Bill Schelly chronicles the life of Otto Binder, from pulp magazine author to writer of Supergirl, Captain Marvel, and Superman. As the originator of the first sentient robot in literature ("I, Robot," published in Amazing Stories in 1939 and predating Isaac Asimov's collection of the same name), Binder's effect on science fiction was profound. Within the world of comic books, he created or co-created much of the Superman universe, including Smallville; Krypto, Superboy's dog; Supergirl; and the villain Braniac. In later years, Binder expanded from comic books into pure science writing, publishing dozens of books and articles on the subject of satellites and space travel as well as UFOs and extraterrestrial life. Through comic panels, personal letters, and interviews with Binder's own family and friends, Schelly weaves together Binder's professional successes and personal tragedies, including the death of Binder's only daughter and his wife's struggle with mental illness. Otto Binder- The Life and Work of a Comic Book and Science Fiction Visionary is a biography that is both meticulously researched and beautifully told, keeping Binder's spirit of scientific curiosity and whimsy very much alive. "A beautifully told biography of comics writer Otto Binder who contributed to popular comics such as Supergirl, Captain Marvel, and Superman"-- Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
