So while I can’t answer too many questions — confidentiality issues, general decency, and limits on the number of hours in the day I can spend here — I’ll try to answer questions that seem of general interest as often as I can.

General caution: please don’t ask me to review portfolios, scripts, or help you get work (time just doesn’t permit).

Michael Uslan just told me that you are one of the few people to have read all DC Comics up to a point! How many have you read? I have a few google docs full of things to read and m finishing the 1930s! 19. January 2024

Nope. Read lots of them, but didn’t read them all. Never spent much time on the early war comics, or almost any on the romance titles. And from about the mid-90s on my reading declined and almost completely stopped when I left the desk at the beginning of ’10.

Who were/are your favorite Legionnaires? My guess are the 3 founders, Dream Girl, Brainy and Element Lad? 4. April 2023

Depended on whose life I was messing with at the time. In childhood, maybe Lone Wolf/Timber Wolf and Element Lad?

Do you know who has the archives of The Comics Code? Columbia appears to have 1974-1994, but I can’t find anything before that. Who has it? 4. April 2023

No idea. I doubt that they survived.

Not a question–just wanna say the Avengers series is what comics should be: Fun. 4. April 2023

Thanks!

Hi: We are working on our next Cosmic Con. It is timed around Superman’s 85th anniversary. We would like to know if you would be interested in attending as a guest to our show. In Queens NY. tnx, albert 4. April 2023

Sorry, not back on the con circuit yet.

Dear Mr. Levitz, Was re-reading the Great Darkness Saga and just noticed before we even see the Superman Servant of Darkness, Legion Annual #1 showed one that was “crushed by a misguided hunk of metal”….which previous character was this initial Servant of Darkness based upon? 20. January 2023

Uhhh…memory fails me?

A question that’s come up on the JSA FB page recently. Were the JSA stories in Adventure 463 and 464 originally intended for All-Star 76? The fact they add up to 25 pages made us wonder. Thanks for all you do! 20. January 2023

I don’t think so, my memory is that only the one issue was left over from ALL-STAR and chopped up into ADVENTURE>

Hi Paul I’m a great admirer of your work and contributions to our hobby over the decades, my question is has there ever been a crossroads in your professional life where looking back now in hindsight you may have gone down a different road ? 5. November 2022

Not hindsight, but there were a few career opportunities that I either turned down or didn’t develop that might have led me away from comics into the world of animation or once to Court TV. No complaints about not taking those paths.
