Kevin Dooley (born January 7, 1953) is best known for his editorial work at DC Comics, though he also wrote for the publisher across several series from the late 1980s into the 2020s. His most frequent writing credits include *Mister Miracle*, *Green Arrow*, *Justice League Europe*, *Justice League America*, *The New Guardians*, and *The Adventures of Superboy*. Dooley’s editorial tenure shaped many of DC’s superhero titles during a period of expansion and crossover events, and his scripts often supported the company’s broader narrative directions. He collaborated with artists such as J.M. DeMatteis and Keith Giffen on the Justice League family of books, contributing to the lighter, character-driven tone that defined that era. Dooley’s later career saw him step away from regular writing, though he remained active in the industry as an editor and occasional scripter. He has not been a frequent recipient of major awards, but his steady presence behind the scenes helped maintain continuity across several key DC franchises. His work on *Mister Miracle* and the Justice League titles remains of interest to fans of late-1980s and early-1990s DC storytelling.
