==Biography==
{{j-railservice start}}
Jerry Ordway started out as an inker when he started working in comic books, at both [[DC Comics]] and [[Marvel Comics]]. At DC, he would go on to co-create and illustrate titles such as ''[[All Star Squadron]]'' and ''[[Infinity Inc]]'' with writer [[Roy Thomas]]. Ordway inked [[George Pérez]]'s pencils on the ''[[Crisis on Infinite Earths]]'' minseries in 1985. In 1986, along with writer/artist [[John Byrne]] and writer [[Marv Wolfman]], Ordway would be one of the architects that helped revamp [[Superman]] with a revised origin and new continuity, which had started with Byrne's miniseries, ''[[The Man of Steel (comic book)|The Man of Steel]]''. Ordway was the primary artist on the comic book series ''[[Adventures of Superman (comic book)|Adventures of Superman]]'', with Wolfman as writer. He would later succeed Wolfman as the series' writer after Wolfman departed in less than a year, which before was scripted by John Byrne briefly prior to Ordway's taking over the series solely. Besides writing on ''[[Adventures of Superman (comic book)|Adventures of Superman]]'', he has also been the writer of other series such as ''[[Superman (vol. 2)]]'', ''[[Avengers (comics)|Avengers]]'' and the ''The Power of Shazam!'' monthly comic. In 1988, during the 50th anniversary celebrations for [[Superman]], he inked over artist [[John Byrne]]'s pencils for a ''[[Time (magazine)|Time]]'' magazine cover and interior spread which featured Superman. In 1989, he would take time off from his monthly work on Superman and illustrate the 1989 comic book movie adaptation to director [[Tim Burton]]'s blockbuster movie, ''[[Batman (1989 film)|Batman]]''. That same year Ordway would switch as writer/artist of ''[[Adventures of Superman (comic book)|Adventures of Superman]]'' to ''[[Superman (vol. 2)]]''.

In 2001, he drew the one-shot, ''Just Imagine Stan Lee with Jerry Ordway Creating the JLA'', with comics legend and writer [[Stan Lee]], in which the two of them re-imagined DC's [[Justice League of America]]. He also provided the art for a six-issue story arc of ''[[Wonder Woman]]'' (vol. 2) with issues #189-194, with writer [[Walt Simonson]] in 2003. He was also one of several artists who provided the art in the limited series, ''[[Infinite Crisis]]'' in 2005-2006.
