Charles Chuck" Dixon" Biography

Charles Chuck Dixon is an American comic book writer best known for his work in the 1990s and early 2000s on the Marvel character the Punisher and the DC characters Batman, Nightwing, and Robin. Chuck Dixon's first comic book work was Evangeline, which he wrote for Comico Comics in 1984 and subsequently for First Comics in 1985. He was engaged by Marvel Comics' Savage Sword of Conan editor Larry Hama to produce backup stories. He would ultimately take over the primary feature of Conan on a semi-regular basis, writing under the name Charles Dixon. He contributed tales to the Larry Hama-edited Savage Tales reboot, which featured a number of western adventures drawn by John Severin. Between 1989 and 1990, he collaborated with artist David Wenzel on a three-issue version of J. R. R. Tolkien's The Hobbit for Eclipse, and in June 1989, he began writing Marc Spector: Moon Knight for editor Carl Potts. After working on the monthly The Punisher War Journal and then additional Punisher publications as a result of the Punisher Kingdom Gone graphic book, he was approached by DC Comics editor Dennis O'Neil, who requested him and Tom Lyle to create a Robin mini-series starring the Tim Drake version. The Joker's Wild and Cry of the Huntress, two sequels to the series, were released. Dixon worked on Detective Comics from #644 (May 1992) to #738 (Nov. 1999) through the major Batman stories KnightFall' and KnightsEnd, for which he helped create the key character of Bane, Contagion, Legacy, Cataclysm, and No Man's Land, as well as an ongoing monthly series for which he wrote for 100 issues before leaving to work with CrossGen Comics. In Detective Comics #644 (May 1992), Dixon and Lyle co-created the Electrocutioner, and in Detective Comics #647, they co-created Stephanie Brown (August 1992). Graham Nolan illustrated a lot of his later work. In the 1990s, he was DC's most prolific Batman writer, establishing solo series for Robin, Nightwing (which he wrote for 70 issues and returned to temporarily with 2005's #101), and Batgirl, as well as the team and title Birds of Prey. Dixon shifted his focus to CrossGen's production in March 2002, gradually abandoning Robin, Nightwing, Birds of Prey, and Batgirl over the next year, but he co-wrote the origin of Barbara Gordon's Batgirl in 2003's Batgirl: Year One with Scott Beatty. Dixon made his comeback to the DC Universe in July 2004 with Richard Dragon, a 12-issue resurrection of the 1970s kung-fu character. He briefly returned to Nightwing in March of the following year before shifting his focus to the Wildstorm imprint, where he wrote the stand-alone Claw the Unconquered, the movie adaptation of Snakes on a Plane, the movie spin-off Nightmare on Elm Street, and the Wildstorm Universe title Grifter/Midnighter, all of which were released in May 2007. He was revealed as the writer for Dynamite Entertainment's book The Man with No Name, based on the western figure, in August 2008. For IDW Publishing, he authored a G.I. Joe series. In March 2009, Moonstone Books released Airboy 1942: The Best of Enemies, a new Airboy one-shot penned by Dixon. Dixon claims he was offered the chance to rewrite Sylvester Stallone's screenplay for The Expendables 2 in 2011. Dixon returns to DC Comics in 2017 to pen the short book Bane: Conquest.
