Joe Casey

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Joe Casey is an American comic book writer. He has worked on titles such as Wildcats 3.0, Uncanny X-Men, The Intimates, Adventures of Superman, and G.I. Joe: America's Elite, among others.

During Joe Casey's run at Marvel Comics people started to recognize his talent as a writer, especially in regard to his work on the book Cable. He took the story in a totally different direction than had been previously established. Cable went from a multi-gun toting tough guy to a more spiritualized leader for the Askani.

Joe Casey wrote many titles for Wildstorm comics, often to high critical acclaim, like the highly experimental Automatic Kafka with artist Ashley Wood. Casey took over Wildcats and gave the series new direction turning from standard superheroics to corporate espionage. His Mister Majestic series with artist Ed McGuiness impressed DC Comics enough to offer them a run on Adventures of Superman.

Joe Casey's Full Moon Fever was announced to be directed by Renny Harlin in December 2004.[1]

Joe Casey is currently writing a limited series for Marvel Comics, a sequel to 2005's Avenger's: Earth's Mightiest Heroes. He also is writing the ongoing series G.I. Joe: America's Elite for Devil's Due Publishing and Gødland for Image Comics. He is also working on a revamp of the original Youngblood miniseries by Rob Liefeld, called Maximum Youngblood.

Casey is a part of the Man of Action collective of creators (along with Joe Kelly, Duncan Rouleau, Steven T. Seagle), who created the series Ben 10, currently airing on Cartoon Network.
