The comics author and co-creator of Miles Morales offers an exclusive first look at his new autobiographical graphic novel ‘Fortune and Glory: The Musical!’, which tells the tale of his time on the notorious ‘Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark' Broadway musical.

Resurrecting this from the dead, having just gotten my hands on this after falling down a Turn Off the Dark rabbit hole.

Alas, I can't say there's a whole lot to be gleaned about the early days of Turn of the Dark's development, but since Brian Bendis's involvement predates Glen Berger's, you get a glimpse of the conceptual wrestling match that was already going on between Marvel and Julie Taymor. (Hard to believe now in the wake of the superhero movie-industrial complex, but Marvel wasn't quite the superpower it became—Bendis's first-hand experiences of seeing Marvel's fortunes reverse makes this a worthwhile read for comics fans.)
