I have been actively attending conventions as the historian of the creation of Batman, artist and upcoming author.   I was featured in the Hulu documentary Batman and Bill sharing my family story of how this injustice followed four generations and was finally resolved with his name being attached to the Batman name. I am also a supporter of local art and the arts in schools and a co-presenter of the Bill Finger Award at the Will Eisner Award Ceremony at San Diego Comic Con.   James Robinson returns to the world of his acclaimed STARMAN series in this new graphic novel starring the antihero known as The Shade!
