New York City Comic Con may have happened close to a month ago but Multiversity Comics’s coverage of the East Coast’s largest comics and pop culture event is just getting going. Multiversity sent 14 of our staff to the event this year for interviews, panel reports, and more so expect lots more to come over the next few weeks. This way, even if you couldn’t make it yourself, you can still see the con through our eyes.

Paul Levitz is an industry legend, having worked in multiple capacities with DC for over thirty years, Levitz wroted, edited, and, eventually, president-ed, over hundreds of issues of comics for the company. Folks may know him for his work on “Legion of Superheroes,” which he wrote for a little over a decade, and for the many talented people he brought into the company. Now, Levitz is working on a project for a different sort of superhero universe. Tasked with bringing back another Valiant hero along with artist MJ Kim, of “Faith: Dreamside” fame, “The Visitor” is a project currently shrouded in mystery, save for a few details that Levitz graciously chatted with Elias about.

Thanks again to Paul for taking the time to chat! “The Visitor” #1 (of 5) is out December 18th from your local comic shop or wherever you find good comics.
