520    Otto Binder: The Life and Work of a Comic Book and Science
       Fiction Visionary chronicles the career of Otto Binder, 
       from pulp magazine author to writer of Supergirl, Captain 
       Marvel, and Superman comics. As the originator of the 
       first sentient robot in literature ("I, Robot," published 
       in Amazing Stories in 1939 and predating Isaac Asimov's 
       collection of the same name), Binder's effect on science 
       fiction was profound. Within the world of comic books, he 
       created or co-created much of the Superman universe, 
       including Smallville; Krypto, Superboy's dog; Supergirl; 
       and the villain Braniac. Binder is also credited with 
       writing many of the first "Bizarro" storylines for DC 
       Comics, as well as for being the main writer for the 
       Captain Marvel comics. In later years, Binder expanded 
       from comic books into pure science writing, publishing 
       dozens of books and articles on the subject of satellites 
       and space travel as well as UFOs and extraterrestrial 
       life. Comic book historian Bill Schelly tells the tale of 
       Otto Binder through comic panels, personal letters, and 
       interviews with Binder's own family and friends. Schelly 
       weaves together Binder's professional successes and 
       personal tragedies, including the death of Binder's only 
       daughter and his wife's struggle with mental illness. A 
       touching and human story, Otto Binder: The Life and Work 
       of a Comic Book and Science Fiction Visionary is a 
       biography that is both meticulously researched and 
       beautifully told, keeping alive Binder's spirit of 
       scientific curiosity and whimsy.
