Award-winning   comic-book creator Brian Michael Bendis is one of the most successful writers in the industry today.   In addition to an acclaimed run on Daredevil, he has helmed a renaissance for Marvel’s popular Avengers franchise and written the   event projects House of M,   Secret War, Secret Invasion, Siege, Age   of Ultron and Civil War   II. Bendis wrote every issue of Ultimate Spider-Man from its launch   in 2000 before bringing his multiracial Spider-Man, Miles Morales, to the   Marvel Universe for continuing adventures. He took on Marvel’s mutants in the   pages of All-New X-Men   and Uncanny X-Men, and   launched Guardians of the Galaxy into the stratosphere. Bendis shook up the life of Tony Stark   in Invincible Iron Man   and related titles, introducing Riri Williams as Ironheart, and then   assembled street-level heroes Luke Cage, Iron Fist, Daredevil and his   co-creation Jessica Jones in Defenders. His creator-owned projects include Scarlet   with Alex Maleev, Brilliant with Mark Bagley, and Takio and the Eisner Award-winning Powers   with Michael Avon Oeming.
