Inhuman Writer Charles Soule Talks Managing Seven Titles, A Law Firm

Over the course of the last year or so, writer Charles Soule seems to have become the busiest name in mainstream comics. He’s writing a total of seven monthly titles from three different publishers, including the massively high-profile Superman/Wonder Woman, and still hasn’t abandoned the law firm that has served as his day job for years before suddenly breaking big into the comics industry.Besides Superman/Wonder Woman, Soule writes Swamp Thing and Red Lanterns for DC; Thunderbolts, She-Hulk and Inhuman for Marvel; andLetter 44, a creator-owned title from Oni Press. And as a result of this sudden, massive surge in Soule-demand, the writer took to his blog yesterday to share his thoughts on “How I Do It,” a response to the most common question he’s asked by fans and other pros.”It is extremely important to me that the work doesn’t suffer in quality because of obligations towards quantity,” Soule wrote. “That’s obviously very important on the creative side, but also professionally crucial on the law side. I’ve always had to handle significant workloads, ever since graduating from law school, but these days it’s on an entirely different level.”
