Comics creator Gerry Conway discusses the state of the comics industry, the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and Netflix's 'Punisher.'

Comics writer Gerry Conway wrote Carol Danvers' debut solo comic in 1977, and co-created The Punisher and more Marvel and DC characters.

Comics writer Gerry Conway is responsible for some of the most popular characters and moments in comics history. Over four decades later,"Captain Marvel" is rocketing toward $1 billion at the worldwide box office. The movie is more closely inspired by writer Kelly Sue DeConnick's interpretation of the character, when she finally took the name Captain Marvel in 2012. But as Conway, 66, told Business Insider, he's a"grandparent" to the movie.

I should state from the top I have no inside information, so this is all based on my insights as a pro and as a fan. But one of the things Marvel has done that's so smart is that they treat all of their films as not a member of the comic-book genre, but as a genre film within other genres."Ant-Man" is a comedy heist film."Winter Soldier" is a political thriller. Once you recognize that you have that opportunity, I could see a rom-com Marvel movie.
