Trivia

 * Writer Richard Donner is more popularly known for his film work, notably, the 1978 Superman movie, which he directed, and his contributions to the sequel, Superman II.

Donner is not the first movie director to try his hand at writing comics. Comedy director Kevin Smith has also contributed material to both Marvel and DC Comics. He authored the first major story-arc from Green Arrow (Volume 3) entitled "Quiver".
