And to push my luck here I have another one: How can a writer submit script samples to DC? For an artist it is very easy to show his drawings but for a writer it is very hard to prove to others that he can actually write.

The JLA issue (#14) was a terrific reference for the first 140 issues and would be a great book to sit alongside the 70s encyclopedia reprints. Another vote here for Thriller and Perez JLA.

(I'm sure I've done the math incorrectly; neither of us should be so old.) I have read comments in the past that have implied that you aren't fond of some of your earlier work (like LSH in the 220s, for example). I remember those stories fondly, and I still feel they hold up today. I wonder if you could compare/contrast the life of a comic book writer, then and now: what, if anything, about the experience is different (and what makes it so)? Many thanks.
