Early life

He currently resides with his family in the Los Angeles area.[1][2]

Career

Swierczynski has written six non-fiction books, including This Here's A Stick-Up: The Big Bad Book Of American Bank Robbery (Alpha, 2002) and The Big Book O’ Beer (Quirk, 2004).

He has worked as an editor at Men's Health and Details as well as Philadelphia magazines including the Philadelphia City Paper, which he left in February 2008.[3]

Secret Dead Men, Swierczynski's crime fiction debut, was published in 2005 by PointBlank and has since written nine further novels. His fiction draws heavily on crime noir themes, making frequent use of femmes fatale.

In 2008, Swierczynski signed an exclusive deal with Marvel Comics,[4] where he penned Moon Knight Annual #1, a Punisher one-shot ("Force of Nature"), and the second volume of Cable,[5] which lasted 24 issues. He also assumed writing duties on The Immortal Iron Fist from issue #18 until the title's cancellation.[6] His other planned projects with Marvel included a revival of Werewolf By Night,[7] a story starring Bishop,[8] and contributing to the X-Men-related event Messiah War.[9][10] He later wrote the 2012 rebooted Bloodshot series from Valiant Comics and the Black Hood series from Archie Comics beginning in 2015.

Lion's Gate Entertainment picked up Swierczynski's novel Severance Package for film treatment and hired Brett Simon to direct the film and co-write the script with Swierczynski.[11]

Swierczynski is known for using a variety of social media tools, including Twitter and Blogspot.[2]

In September 2011, DC Comics relaunched Birds of Prey with issue #1 as part of their The New 52 publishing initiative. Swierczynski replaced Marc Andreyko as the writer, with Jesus Saiz handling the art.[12] Batgirl and Poison Ivy will later be joining the team.

Personal life

Duane Swierczynski is married and has two children.[13] His first-born son (born March 30, 2002), Parker, is named in honor of the Richard Stark character as well as Spider-Man's secret identity, Peter Parker.[14][15] He also has a daughter (born July 15, 2003), Evelyn, or Evie for short.
