Brian Wood's history of published work includes over fifty volumes of genre-spanning original material.
From the 1500-page future war epic DMZ, the ecological disaster series The Massive, the American crime drama Briggs Land, and the groundbreaking lo-fi dystopia Channel Zero he has a 20-year track record of marrying thoughtful world-building and political commentary with compelling and diverse characters.
His YA novels - Demo, Local, The New York Four, and Mara - have made YALSA and New York Public Library best-of lists. His historical fiction - the viking series Northlanders, the American Revolution-centered Rebels, and the norse-samurai mashup Sword Daughter - are benchmarks in the comic book industry.
He's written some of the biggest franchises in pop culture, including Star Wars, Terminator, RoboCop, Conan The Barbarian, Robotech, and Planet Of The Apes. He’s written number-one-selling series for Marvel Comics. And he’s created and written multiple canonical stories for the Aliens universe, including the Zula Hendricks character.
For a comic book, these 2013 Star Wars comics from Wood continue to be absolutely stellar. I am not joking when I say TV/film quality material.
Story build-up issue, but still remarkably well done.
- Lord Vader and Birra are still on the hunt for the Farm boy from Tatooine. - Han, Chewie, and Perla continue to live another day. - Leia does 100% as expected, really to a fault at this point. - Prithi's circle is now complete. - Luke and Antilles... - - Right now this is my favorite mini-arc going on. I am super excited to see where these two go next. It's been a wild ride for this duo.
