And Sam was a comer in his own right, having collaborated with “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” creator Joss Whedon on a comic, “Tales of the Vampires. Sam had befriended a lot of comic book and TV writers during the time spent hanging out with his dad.

The elder Loeb is known for writing contemporary Superman and Batman comics, including the “Superman for All Seasons” graphic novel that influenced the tone of WB Network’s “Smallville” series centering on Clark Kent in his high school days.
