About Deran McKeen
(Top Expert on this page)

Expertise
I am an expert on the storylines of most DC and Marvel comics particularly the X-Men, Justice League and most Marvel comics of the 70's, 80's and early 90's. The characters with which I am the most familiar are Daredevil, Iron Man, Batman, the various members of the Justice Society, the Hulk, Captain America, the Avengers, Green Lantern, The Flash and the Teen Titans. Anything I don't know I will be more than happy to research for you until you get the answer you are looking for.

Experience
I have collected comic books for 35 years and have close relatives in the industry who helped shape the direction of comics in the early seventies.

Education/Credentials
Bachelor's of Sociology Masters of Business Administration
