From 007. Today we dive into one of the true pillars of modern comics and animation , Dwayne McDuffie, the co-founder of Milestone Media and creative force behind Static Shock, Damage Control, and countless Justice League stories.

In this episode we sit down with Dwayne to unpack his journey from groundbreaking comic book writer to influential TV producer, his passion for superhero storytelling, and how his work reshaped representation on the page and screen. We get into his creative process, the behind-the-scenes of the Justice League animated universe, his time bringing Static Shock to life, and why his approach to heroes ( both in comics and cartoons ) was never just about punches and capes, but about heart, diversity, and storytelling that matters.
