His introduction into writing comics came in June 1987, when he penned The American, which was published by Dark Horse Comics in its second year of operation. Starting in March of the following year, he wrote what was to be the first of many Verheiden/Dark Horse comics based on the 20th Century Fox film-series Aliens, and comics based on the similarly licensed property Predator soon followed. A character in the film Alien vs. Predator was named after him and was played by Tommy Flanagan. |
|||
In January 1989, he wrote the first of several stories featuring Superman for DC Comics' then-weekly title Action Comics, from #635. He has also written stories featuring popular icons like The Phantom, and contributed to the lauded A1 anthology. This was followed by Stalkers, a 12 issues series for Marvel Comics' Epic Comics imprint. |
|||
His Phantom stories featured in a 13-issue maxi-series from DC Comics (following a 4-issue Peter David written mini-series) and took on 'real-world issues', such as poisoning, illegal weapon trading, racism, and toxic dumping. The stories usually took a more psychological approach than the Lee Falk written comic strips. Luke McDonnell was the regular artist. |
|||
Verheiden has also contributed to scripts for the feature films The Mask and Timecop (he also wrote the Dark Horse comics adaptation of the film). |
|||
Verheiden has worked on shows such as ''[[Superman|Smallville]]'' and ''Battlestar Galactica''. He was the creator/writer and supervising producer on the ABC television series Timecop which aired in the 1997-1998 season. He was a consulting producer on the UPN series The Strip in 1999. |
|||
Verheiden joined the crew of ''Smallville'' as a supervising producer in 2001. He was a supervising producer for the first two seasons, and then co-executive producer for the third season. He wrote twelvee episodes of the series before his departure in 2005. He was also one of the writers on DC's Smallville comic, based on the series. |
|||
Verheiden joined ''Battlestar Galactica'' as a consulting producer for the second season in 2005. He became a co-executive producer for the eighth episode of the second season later that year. He remained with the series as a co-executive producer until its fourth and final season which completed production in 2008. He contributed eight episodes to the show as a writer. Following the completion of ''Battlestar Galactica'' he became a member of the Heroes crew.<!-- expand --> |

In 2007, Verheiden began work on the live-action screenplay for a Teen Titans film for Warner Bros., as well as an adaptation of his own Ark (written for Dark Horse Presents in the mid-1990s) with Sony Pictures. |
|||
In the mid-2000s, Dark Horse Comics gained the Evil Dead comics licence, and from January-April 2008, Verheiden wrote the four-issue miniseries based on the Sam Raimi movie, with art by John Bolton. Verheiden was no stranger to the Evil Dead team, having previously worked with Raimi on Time Cop, written a pilot for Rob Tapert and produced the screenplay for Bruce Campbell's My Name is Bruce. |
