His success in comic books oddly led to a career in television by way of animation, then on to primetime for the venerable "Law & Order" franchise. Though not as well known as predecessor and comic icon Stan Lee, or Todd McFarlane, who became popular in the 1990s, Conway nonetheless carved out a prominent career. Among his most notable work was the seminal Spider-Man storyline involving the death of girlfriend Gwen Stacy - a comic that remained popular well after publication, and The Punisher - the first real vigilante superhero that inspired two feature films.
