From the time his first story was published in 1969, Gerry Conway became one of the most prolific and highly regarded comics writers of the era. He wrote for nearly every character being published at the time, and his original creations--including Firestorm, Steel and Vixen--changed comics history forever. Conway's work had a profound effect on the legacy of Batman, with his creations Killer Croc and Jason Todd becoming mainstays in the legend of the Dark Knight.

Amazing Spider-Man #121, as well as serving briefly as that
