I says it afore, and I'll says it again. 1) I'm happy to write anything for the DC animated universe. I always enjoy that gig. It's really up to an editor with a hole in his schedule who needs a script. It ain't even slightly up to me. 2) The Red Hood/Plastic Man story was ninety percent...

Well, I'm sorry if I'm making Wonder Woman a bit "young" looking. The references I have give her a girlish look sometimes, perhaps I should move to other references. I'm glad people are digging the cover. They're letting me colour them as well, this go round, which is gives me a little more...

but had Ty worked on the TV show, I don't think we get those Beetleborgesque costumes on Wasp & Ant-Man. Ah, you ascribe much power to me... Avi Arad, the executive producer on the TV show (and on all of Marvel's recent movies) has a real thing for armor and animal-men. He comes...

And oh yeah. www.mrcomics.ca I forgot my self-serving tag. Ty the Forgetful Guy.

As far as I know, I start with issues #19 and #20 of the JLU title, and go from there. And there shouldn't be TOO much trouble doing both, I'm only providing covers for JLU at the moment. And actually, the lion's share of my work day in the last couple of weeks has been over in...

I'm quite happy to write 'em a story if they ask me. I've only been asked to do the covers for the series. Dan's SHE-HULK is out? I gotta get to a comic store! Ty BTW: I mean it...head to the mr. comics website and try out the new Apes comic...and post something to our forum over...

Who doesn't love Krypto? I have to tell you guys, perhaps it's because I have some kids right in the target audience for the show (a five year old daughter and a six year old son) but I think Krypto is the bestest show ever. I actually, unreservedly love, love, love it. I defy anyone to...

I'm back doing the covers for JLU, starting to pencil my first one this week. Ty

I thought I'd just drop everyone a line here at my favorite toon website to let you guys know that I'll be back doing covers for the JLU series starting this week. I couldn't be happier that my schedule and DC's interest have matched up and I get to play with my favorite versions of these...

Ah, garsh! Glad you guys liked it...I'm especially glad that folks picked up that I was doing "riffs" on the art of Romita, Kane, Byrne, etc. when doing the stories from those eras. Some reviewers just kept referring to the art as "old fashioned" when it was intended to be a pastiche, and...

Well... Here's the thing. I know who the Red Hood was, naturally, since I was working on the issues that featured him. HOWEVER, the decision as to who was under there was Dan's not mine. We often shotgunned ideas, and sometimes just called each other up with ideas, but the basic Red Hood...

Yup, that's the plan. I'm trying to evoke each period that the stories take place in. It's a fairly bizarre process, for instance, in the early issues, you couldn't see Johnny's eyes, but by about FF#30 Kirby was putting the eyes in....so Spidey-Torch #1 is an eyeless Torch, but by ish #2, I...

You know, that was my first Batman Adventures issue, and Slott says it's still my best one. Sigh...when you can't top your first one...sigh... Ty the Guy. Tickled pink that it still reads well, ten years later.

I have a set of those comics, and I'm afraid I don't think they're amongst Jack's best work. He plotted the first series, but didn't draw them. Then he drew the next series, but did not plot them. Then he only "conceived" the third series, with no actual input beyond plotting sessions. They...

Wow! I thought I was the only guy left on Earth with a set of these. Aren't they kooky? My one and only foray into actually animating things. Though I've storyboarded an act of a show here and there, these are the only bits of key animation and inbetweening (etc) that I ever did outside...

Dan Slott and I decided...since we didn't have enough room to tell the Red Hood story AND to wrap up the Batman Adventures universe (with #17, and the Joker-Harley-Ivy relationship to resolve) we were going to save it until we get a chance to "do" the Red Hood as a Justice League Unlimited...

Well...since I'm being asked...here are just a very few of the hidden bits in Batman Adventures...just the stuff I can think of while typing.... The character of Dagger Dixon (from Batman and Robin Adventures #16 and Gotham Adventures #7) has the first name of Chuck (a fact mentioned in...

A "Just so you know" post from Ty. Segarini and the Iceman are the same guy, and neither of them is really Joe Chill, though I did toss in the reference as a goose for Bob, who's a huge Batman fan. Bob Segarini (look him up on google) is a friend of mine who's a local disc jockey for...

I'm working on the Simpsons /Bongo comics at the moment. I just had a Bartman special (Bart Simpson #17) come out last month, and I have a Simpsons issue featuring the return of X'Tapalatakettel due out in a couple of weeks (Simpsons #98) as well as a story in the Treehouse of Horror Halloween...

I think I said two main characters before the end of the series, but not two main characters in the last issue....and I meant the character who dies in this issue, and the Ivy plant monster in the previous issue. You could consider the death of Matt Hagen as well (if you want to count three...

My two cents. In my opinion it's down to Catwoman and Talia, with Selina slightly in the lead. Catwoman is the one his heart beats for, and Talia is the one that gets the attention of his loins and his head. Andrea, Barbara, Zatanna, and that clearly memorable girl from Mystery of...

Happy happy, joy, joy. Oh, wait. That's a Ren and Stimpy reference. Good on ya for being born, Paul. It was a great pleasure to work with you those couple of times over the years. Ty the Guy.

<<Penguin's line about killing Batman "no matter what the cost" a few issues back was repeated by Ivy, in reference to Joker, and then by Harley in reference to Ivy. Did you repeat those lines intentionally Ty, and if so, why?>> Yup. I'm glad someone noticed. When I heard we were...

Yeah, I saw that storyline coming up. It amused me, especially that line about actually revealing the identity of the Red Hood at the end of the story (which seems like a specific dig at our story not finishing due to the cancellation). But... I have no idea what's up with this story, and...

The Ivy Clone was substituted whenever you want her to be, but in my mind, it was somewhere between the last issue of Gotham Adventures and the first issue of the New Batman Adventures. (The Harley /Ivy mini is therefore, "safe" and is STILL about the original Ivy, since it was written and...

As far as I know, Kane had no involvement, beyond appreciating his creation being treated well. Sadly, Kane is one of the great towering figures of my pantheon that I never got to meet. I hope he got to saw what we did with his Batman in the comic version. I like to think he would have been...

Just tossing my two cents in. Kane's original design (the red one with the stiff wings based on the DaVinci flying apparatus) was merely one of a few preliminary designs, and was discarded and redesigned by Kane after comments by Finger and others. Taking advice from someone doesn't take...

This is a unique situation for me: The first issue of Batman Adventures I've not seen before publication, so I got to read it (more or less) as a fan. WOO HOO! Jason and Kelsey, you guys did a GREAT job! And Terry or course, I expect nothing less than greatness, as always. The issue was...

Just so folks know... Scott Peterson edited the first sixty or so issues of Batman Adventures (and Batman and Robin Adventures) before leaving the staff of DC to go on to freelance WRITE a further thirty or so issues of Gotham Adventures. Scott has worked on more issues of Batman Adventures...

So many questions. So many threads left dangling and only three issues to go. I'll tell you this much...I don't know much about Jason's issue (#15) so we'll all read that one together. And the last two issues answer directly some of the questions asked so far, so I don't want to give...

The great joy of comics is that many moments remain frozen on a single page, while in film, each moment gets it's own....well, moment. It's the essential difference that separates the media from each other. Any given page in comics may contain the "anticipation", the "event", and the...

Brave and Bold #191 was a Batman-Joker Team Up IIRC PLUS: There was a recent mini series where Joker and Batman team up to fight Ra's. The gag in that series was that Joker, while dying, is tossed into a Lazarus Pit, and the healing waters drive Joker SANE (rather than INsane, as the...

Hey Creeper's Keeper.... I know it was confusing, since it also confused me, but the kid from issue #3 (and Batman Adventures volume 1 #33) Justin, was NOT in this issue at all. The opening sequence was a young Matt Hagen and his mother, NOT Justin and Veronica. The hair colour was...

Just so you guys know... We'd NEVER kill Alfred, he's safe. One of the characters just had his grand finale in the latest issue of Batman Adventures (no spoilers if you haven't read it yet). But with three more issues to go, I will warn you that TWO, count em TWO more major, major...

A couple of years back I wrote a story which featured Ra's and a mysterious space craft he claimed he'd taken from alien greys. I figured since alien greys are part of the world of the supernatural, like ghosts and demons and (dare I say it) seven year old mystics like Ra's, they were fair game...

Awwwww thanks. You really warmed the cockles of my heart. I am officially farklempt. What a lovely capper to a very nice birthday. And Bruce, such a nice singing voice, you should go into the business. I had a good birthday, btw...the wife and all FOUR kids are happy and healthy and...

Harper Thanks for getting that. I wanted some ambiguity about what Batman did. He's being a little more "outlaw vigilante" than usual in this story, and I was hoping folks would scratch their heads over it. You didn't even mention that Barbara broke into Eddie's apartment and stole a...

Actually, the hardest part is not waking him UP. See, Slott and I were planning another Riddler issue in our next arc (now lost in limbo) where Eddie wakes up with NO idea who he is. Which becomes the ultimate riddle...WHO AM I? Ahhh, it would have been fun. We still might do that story if...

As the person who's written more Riddler stories than anyone else in the animated continuity, I'll tell you bluntly: Eddie isn't gay. "Not that there's anything wrong with that", (to quote my best buddy, Jerry Seinfeld). Killer Moth? Who knows? But when I get inside Riddler's head...
