Elliot S! Maggin
Elliot S! Maggin teams up with the JLA in Justice League of America #123

"In all my years as a comic book editor, I have never come across a 'first time' script that came within a light-year of equaling Elliot S! Maggin's 'first time' comic book script.  Indeed, to equalize this thrilling experience, I must go back to the early 1940s when, as a literary agent, I sold the very first story of a young Ray Bradbury."

- Julius Schwartz

Unfulfilled Aspirations in Comics
The story he had to tell !


Why the S! ?

"I got into the habit of putting exclamation marks at the end of sentences instead of periods because reproduction on pulp paper was so lousy.  So once, by accident, when I signed a script I put the exclamation point after my 'S' because I was just used to going to that end of the typewriter at the time.  And Julie saw it, and before he told me, he goes into the production room and issues a general order that any mention of Elliot Maggin's name will be punctuated with an exclamation mark rather than a period from now on until eternity."
