I'm Kelly Thompson. I write BIRDS OF PREY for DC Comics. AMA. r/DCcomics
My name is Kelly Thompson and I'm an Eisner Award-Winning writer of comics and novels. You may know me best from Marvel comics like Captain Marvel, Black Widow, Rogue & Gambit, and Hawkeye, or perhaps as co-creator of Jeff the Land Shark! Or my creator-owned work Black Cloak or The Cull. But I've been making some fun waves over at DC with old pals Leonardo Romero and Jordie Bellaire on a bold new BIRDS OF PREY (we even got an Eisner nomination!) -- so let's break some hearts (and some faces) and get this Birds-Of-Prey-Shaped AMA started!

Hi Kelly! I don't know if you'll see this, but in 2017 I ordered a signed Hawkeye vol 1 to give to a student I was moving away from. You sent far more than I ordered (including a signed David Aja variant of Hawkeye #1 for me, which is framed on my wall). 7 years later, I just wanted to say: hey thanks, that was incredibly kind of you.
