Shane McCarthy inspires our Talented Young Writers

Are you fan of reading comics? What about DC Comics? Marvel? Six of our Year 6 students spent last Tuesday at the Talented Young Writers Program with Shane McCarthy, a freelance writer whose work has been published internationally by the likes of DC Comics, Marvel Comics and more.  How…awesome…is…that?!?
Ms Mackenzie said he was absolutely brilliant and very engaging! 🤩 Our students enthusiastically agreed.
Shane began his career in 2004 by writing DETECTIVE COMICS (starring Batman) making him the first Australian to write Batman for DC Comics since the character’s creation in 1939. Since then he has written for BATMAN LEGENDS OF THE DARK KNIGHT, more DETECTIVE COMICS, STAR WARS, DEADPOOL TEAM UP and TRANSFORMERS: ALL HAIL MEGATRON to name a few.
Shane is currently working on an exciting graphic novel series for younger readers due out in the not too distant future!
