He is also a well-respected comic book writer, and he has written stories featuring popular icons like The Phantom, Aliens, and Superman.
His Phantom stories featured in a 13 issue maxi-series from DC Comics (following a 4 issue Peter David written mini-series) took up real world issues, such as poisoning, illegal weapon trading, racism, and toxic dumping. The stories usually took a more psychological approach than the Lee Falk written comic strips. Luke McDonnell was the regular artist.
