Since the end of his creator-owned teen drama series The Waiting Place , which was published from 1997 to 2002, McKeever has written several series for Marvel Comics, including The Incredible Hulk , Sentinel , Mary Jane , Inhumans and Gravity .

In 2005, he won an Eisner Award for Talent Deserving of Wider Recognition. [2]

He has written for the monthly comic books Gravity, Marvel Adventures Spider-Man , Sentinel and Spider-Man Loves Mary Jane , all for Marvel Comics, and on January 9, 2007, DC Comics announced that McKeever had signed an exclusive contract with the publisher. He was a part of the writing team working on DC's weekly series Countdown , [3] and took over for Gail Simone as the writer of Birds of Prey after issue #112, however, his last issue was #117 due to time constraints with deadlines. Sean also took up writing duties on Teen Titans with the double sized August issue #50 [4] [5] and also wrote the Terror Titans limited series that spun off from this. [6] His run on Teen Titans has ended with issue #71, [7] [8] although he has continued with a Ravager back-up story starting in #72. [9]

It was announced at Wizard World Philadelphia 2009 that McKeever, no longer under exclusive contract to DC, would write the limited series Nomad: Girl Without a World for Marvel Comics [10] [11] and this led into Young Allies a new series and team formed after the Heroic Age line-wide reboot, all with artist David Baldeon.
