Today in Comics History, July 27: Happy birthday, Dan Carr!

Born on this day: Marvel employee Dan Carr! I'm not certain who he was or what he did (his only credit I can find is one issue of typesetting), but if you know, tell me in the comments! Until then, it shouldn't be too hard to find him in the Marvel Bullpen based on that description, right?

I betcha that this one-shot police hostage negotiator character was named after him!



from Spider-Man Unlimited (1993 series) #8 (Marvel, February 1995); script by Tom Lyle; breakdowns by Ron Lim; finishes by Tom Palmer, Al Milgrom, Scott Hanna, and Harry Candelario; colors by John Kalisz; letters by Joe Rosen

Well, wherever you are in Marvel history: happy birthday, Dan!

Most of his credits in the GCD list him as "executive director of publishing technology" in exhaustive mastheads on various reprint projects.
