Who We Are

» Jordan B. Gorfinkel
Avalanche Comics Entertainment was founded and is operated by Jordan B. Gorfinkel, former Batman editor/creator at DC Comics, a subsidiary of TimeWarner, one of the largest and most diverse entertainment companies in the world. During his near-decade tenure at DC Comics, Gorfinkel and his team grew the Batman line from three publications per month to three per week, resulting in 400% sales growth. His contributions went beyond publishing to encompass licensed products, theme parks and multimedia productions such as movies, television and online content.

In television, Gorfinkel’s comics creation Birds of Prey was developed into a WB network series. In film, Batman Begins, the successful reboot of the Batman feature movie series, drew inspiration from his critical and commercial smash series Batman: No Man’s Land. His DC Comics work has and continues to earn TimeWarner revenues in the many millions of dollars.

As a cartoonist, Gorfinkel writes and illustrates Everything’s Relative, the weekly newspaper comic strip, published internationally, that DreamWorksSKG called “a wonderful idea.” In 2007, the new Munich Jewish Museum commissioned a series of “Everything’s Relative” cartoons to be featured in their permanent exhibition. Gorfinkel is the first cartoonist in the world to be so honored in a Jewish museum.

In music, Gorfinkel is the producer of ten independent music CD releases, including “Voices For Israel,” the acclaimed “We Are the World”-style charity benefit for victims of war and terrorism. He has performed all over the globe, including at the White House— an event immortalized as the “Moment Of Zen” on Comedy Central’s “The Daily Show Starring Jon Stewart.”

Gorfinkel is the proud father of four children, three of whom look like him. (IMAGES: [need Gorf pic])
