Archie Goodwin's first prose story was published by Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine, which warned him he could not use Archie Goodwin as a pen name because it was a Rex Stout character in the Nero Wolfe books. According to Goodwin's wife Anne T. Murphy, the magazine's editors "then were so delighted when he wrote back to say that it was his real name that they used the anecdote as the introduction to the story, which ran in the July 1962 issue."[11] (It was actually the July 1964 issue.)

Archie Goodwin (September 8, 1937 โ March 1, 1998)
He worked on many comic strips in addition to comic books, and is known for his Warren and Marvel Comics work.
