author: James Tynion IV
description: James Tynion IV got his start in the pages of Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo&rsquo;s acclaimed run on <I>Batman</I> at DC Comics in early 2012, where he co-wrote the backup stories for the best-selling Court of Owls and Death of the Family storylines. He has since written stories for Detective Comics, as well as writing the ongoing series <I>Talon</I>, and <I>Red Hood and the Outlaws</I>. He lives and writes in Los Angeles, and is consistently amazed that people are actually letting him work on comic books professionally. He alternates between taking in the most grisly horror media he can get his hands on, and trying not to get choked up while listening to musical theater soundtracks. You can find him on Twitter @JamesTheFourth, or on his Tumblr.<BR> <BR>Michael Dialynas is an Athens, Greece based artist who has illustrated the worlds of AMALA&#39;S BLADE, SPERA, SUPERIOR SPIDER-MAN and currently THE WOODS for Boom! Studios.
