Greg Potter
Greg Potter is an American comic book writer best known for co-creating the DC Comics series ''Jemm, Son of Saturn'' with artist Gene Colan.
==Biography==
Greg Potter began writing comics stories for Warren Publishing's black-and-white horror comics magazines in 1971, while still a teenager. His first work for DC Comics was the seven-page short story "Do You Believe In...?" published in ''House of Mystery'' #259 (July–August 1978). He stopped writing comics while attending Trinity College in Hartford, Connecticut,〔 but returned to the industry in 1984. That year, Potter created Jemm, a character originally conceived as the cousin of the extraterrestrial superhero the Martian Manhunter, a long-running character that had not been in use for some time. Partway through developing the series, Potter was told by editor Janice Race that the Martian Manhunter character would reappear in the ''Justice League of America'' title.〔Nossiter p. 36 "I originally wrote the first six issues on the basis that he was from Mars, and that he was going to be a cousin of J'Onn J'Onzz. Then Janice calls me one day and says he can't be from Mars any more because (J'Onzz is ) coming back in the ''Justice League''.〕 To avoid any continuity problems, Potter rewrote the series as ''Jemm, Son of Saturn'', a character with no connection to the Martian Manhunter. The series was penciled by Gene Colan and inked by Klaus Janson and Bob McLeod.
Potter and Race spent several months working on new concepts for the mid-1980s relaunch of ''Wonder Woman'',〔Gold, Alan "Wonder Words" letter column, ''Wonder Woman'' #329 (February 1986). "(Gold will ) be turning over the editorial reins to Janice Race...She has been working for several months already, as a matter of fact, with a bright new writer named Greg Potter."〕 before being joined by artist and co-plotter George Pérez. Potter left DC after completing the second issue of the new series〔Berger, Karen letter column, ''Wonder Woman'' #5 (June 1987) "Greg is also the creative director of a Connecticut-based advertising agency. Greg chose to further his career in the aforementioned area, and very reluctantly had to relinquish the scripting after helping to launch our series."〕 and was replaced by Len Wein.
