Melrose, Kevin (October 2, 2013). "Quote of the Day Mark Waid's advice to young freelancers". CBR.com. Archived from the original on October 2, 2013. Mark Waid, from a lengthy 'Open Letter to Young Freelancers' that's a must-read not only for comics creators — of any age, and at any stage in their careers — but also for freelancers in other fields, to say nothing of editors, publishers and consumers. The Official Crisis on Infinite Earths Index + The Official Crisis on Infinite Earths Cross-Over Index (co-written by Waid and Lou Mougin, one-shots, 1986)

It’s worth noting here that there are over 60 issues of Flash comics from 1987 to 1992 that are uncollected, and weirdly almost never discussed. Whereas Batman, Wonder Woman, and Superman saw some of their most iconic comics in the wake of Crisis, Flash wouldn’t reach the acclaimed Mark Waid run until issue #62. Mark Waid’s The Flash combines multiple genres to tell a story about family, legacy, redemption and adventure. Nothing is off limits, as major changes are made to Flash lore. Waid’s voice for Wally is distinct and the character grows as the series progresses. Flash begins the run trying to define his relationship with Linda, and by the end they’re married and ready to start a family. You’ll enjoy seeing the Flash evolve, and Wally will feel like an old friend by the time you’re finished reading. Spider-Man Team-Up #1: "Double or Nothing" (co-written by Waid and Tom Peyer, art by Ken Lashley, anthology, 1995) From August 2007 to December 2010, Waid served as Editor-in-Chief and later Chief Creative Officer of Boom! Studios, where he also published his creator-owned series Irredeemable and Incorruptible.

Manning "1990s" in Dolan, p. 265: "The brainchild of writer Mark Waid and artist Mike Wieringo, Impulse burst onto the scene at quite a pace." The rest of the book is various adventures of the Flash, Wally West. From seeing Wally get his powers in a million-to-one exact repeat of the accident that made Barry Allen the Flash to Wally becoming more comfortable in his own skin as the Flash, this is a fun and light introduction to the character. Note that in the story where Wally becomes Kid Flash - he doesn't know Barry is the Flash, even though Barry is his uncle (or uncle to-be - at this point Iris and Barry are engaged). It is clear, later, that Wally knows the truth about Barry and is a little resentful of the former Flash's deception. (Though Barry was merely trying to protect Wally and Iris.) This volume is really a mish-mash, because it includes two Annuals and one Special. All told, they don't tell a particularly coherent story, though the Special offers a nice addition to the Flash legacy in John Fox, and that sort of legacy would come to define Mark Waid's Flash run. Unfortunately, one of the annuals is the Eclipso (1992) annual, and it's all sorts of bad. The writing is mostly incoherent and the storyline is unfinished. But Mark Waid was just the coauthor of that, and one suspects not the person who did the final writing.Full List of 2012 Eisner Award Winners". Newsarama. July 14, 2012.

Written by Mark Waid, Heaven's Ladder dealt with religion and the afterlife." In April 2022, Waid was reported among the more than three dozen comics creators who contributed to Operation USA's benefit anthology book, Comics for Ukraine: Sunflower Seeds, a project spearheaded by IDW Publishing Special Projects Editor Scott Dunbier, whose profits would be donated to relief efforts for Ukrainian refugees resulting from the February 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.
