In addition to his editorial duties, Bridwell was also a prolific writer, whose credits include a run on theBatman syndicated newspaper strip,SHAZAM!,The Inferior Five,The Secret Six,Super Friends, and many stories for the Superman and Batman families of titles. Nelson continued writing and editing for DC until his death in 1987.
