From The Brave And The Bold TV series, a Huntress credit for ex-President and Publisher of DC Comics, Paul Levitz.

Did Paul Levitz Arrange Himself A Creator Credit For Huntress Use?

Printed creator credits for such characters are often a hard fought prize, usually involving lawyers rather than respect for creators. Its the reason Bob Kane is always credited for Batman and Robin, where Bill Finger and Jerry Robinson don't get a look in.

Is this why Paul Levitz gets a TV credit for Huntress, but doesn't in the comic? And co-creators of The Huntress, Joe Staton and Bob Layton, don't get their look in either?

The details of Paul Levits' departure from DC are still muddy. Officially he resigned, unofficially I understand if he didn't he would have been relegated within the company. But he negotiated himself a parachute out of the company with the same skill he did when arranging DC's place iwthin Warners back in the day. Could this credit be part of the arrangement entered into  – along with writing a monthly Legion book?

Don MacPherson did some heavy lifting on this and got no comments from Paul Levitz and DC Comics. I wasn't able to do any better…
