Bill Black began his comics career in 1969 illustrating horror stories for CREEPY and EERIE at Warren Publications. Also that year he started his own publishing company, Paragon Publications, and created CAPTAIN PARAGON, SYNN, SCARLET SCORPION, TARA, and many other characters that still exist in 2023.

Today these Paragon issues are hot collectibles. In 1982 Black launched AC Comics, one of the first 5 Indy comics publishers and the only one still around. During the next 4 decades as Editor and Publisher, AC released over 130 comic book titles. 2024 marks AC Comics 41th anniversary. AC Comics has published monthly for 41 years. Bill Black is an artist and writer whose most notable creation, FEMFORCE (historically the first all-female super team) reached the 200th issue milestone and is currently at No. 203.

Black retired from AC in 2014 to pursue filmmaking and released such videos as AMAZING COLOSSAL WOMAN, MONSTER GORILLA, NYOKA AND THE LOST AMULET OF VULTURA and THE SCARLET SCORPION. Starting with FEMFORCE No. 188, Black was pressed back into service at AC helming that title as writer, inker (with artist Eric Coile), colorist, and letterer to date through FEMFORCE No. 203. He is currently working on films and new Paragon books.

Black is the subject of the documentary film STRANGE LUCK- THE TALE OF BILL BLACK by Drew Mack as seen on Prime.
