Donny Cates is a writer of comic books, and he's pretty good at it. The Texas native has become a fan favourite with amazing runs on titles such as Thanos, God Country, Buzzkill, Venom, Thor, Doctor Strange and much more ... but it wasn't the easiest path - as Donny will attest, he's a ten-year overnight success. Donny was a guest at Comic Con Africa 2019 and was gracious enough to talk to us about many things including - how his Dad gave him his impetus to read through comic books, how he approached the character of Thanos when he was tasked to write him, and what his internship at Marvel taught him.
