Devin Grayson

History

 

Devin Grayson's first published story was a 10-page story entitled "Like Riding a Bicycle" in Batman Chronicles #7. Because of how well-received the story was by fans, she was given the Nightwing Annual #1 and Catwoman Annual #4. After these were published, she was a co-writer of " No Man's Land", writing 11 issues of the event. Her work on here lead to a position as the ongoing "Catwoman" writer, which she held for 19 issues.

Temporarily leaving Gotham, Grayson wrote the JLA/Titans miniseries, leading into an ongoing Titans series, of which she wrote the first 20 issues. Dennis O'Neil, impressed by her work, asked her what she would write about if she were given a Batman title. Grayson said she'd write about the Batman family, which lead to the launch of the critically-acclaimed " Batman: Gotham Knights" series. After writing the first 32 issues, Grayson left to write "Nightwing", writing 42 issues of the series, and inventing the supporting characters Tarantula and Gannon Malloy.

Outside of DC, Grayson has written the creator owned series " Relative Heroes", " User" and " Matador". She wrote the first "Black Widow" miniseries and the second, "Black Widow: Break Down", along with "Ghost Rider: The Hammer Lane" for Marvel Knights. She also wrote the X-Men: Evolution series for 8 issues, before it was abruptly canceled due to low sales. Novels she has written include "Smallville: City", "Batman: Rise of the Sun Tzu" and "DC Universe: Inheritance".

Devin Grayson was supposed to launch the new Batwoman series. However, this project was canceled without notifying her; she found out from a newspaper article.
