Exposition is always a challenge. What works for me when I can is to create antagonism or some emotional situation between the characters so the exposition comes during high emotions. I also like to have more than two people so I
can break up actual exposition with personal situations having nothing to do with the expo.
Hi Gerry, I'm new to Substack and signed up for all the comics-related stuff I could find. I am a huge Cap nerd. I'm in my early 60s, and Loved your brief run in the early 70s; the DD stuff of the era was awesome as well! What are your favs (Marv is a given!).
Also, sheepishly, I started my own blog. It's mostly quirky/humorous stuff. Substack recommends reaching out to writers you like and soliciting, but it feels manipulative to me. So, ya, I hate to ask, but, if you would, pls have a glance. If you like it, maybe you could recommend it. If not, no worries. And thanks for the wonderful childhood memories! P.S. I'd send you this as a private note, but I don't know how. I said I was in my 60s!
