More on Tom King

Tom King grew up in Southern California, where he studied film and interned for both Marvel and DC Comics.

He spent multiple years working as a CIA specialist for their counterterrorist unit in the wake of the 9/11 attack from Al-Qaeda. He then wrote and published the novel A Once Crowded Sky after his years of service.

During the 2015 DCYou initiative, King co-wrote Grayson with Tim Seeley, a story that focused on Dick Grayson temporarily leaving the Nightwing insignia to join Spyral as a secret agent. In the midst of Geoff Johns' end of his Justice League run on the Darkseid War arc, King wrote a seven-issue series called The Omega Men that focused on Kyle Rayner. It would use the 9-panel grid, a famous storytelling piece originally used by Alan Moore that would become a trademark in his writing style.

In the same year, he would also garner attention with his twelve-issue series on Vision and Vertigo's Sheriff of Babylon.

King reached the national spotlight when it was announced that he would take over the Batman ongoing title for the DC Rebirth relaunch in 2016 after Scott Snyder's critically applauded run with Greg Capullo ended. He would also write Mister Miracle, Heroes in Crisis, Rorschach, and Strange Adventures in the years following.

He is currently writing Human Target, a limited murder mystery series that focuses on Christopher Chance.
