Writer

Pierre Chanliau was approached to join The Direct as a writer before the site launched in 2020 based on his prior two years of experience at MCU Exchange and his extensive role as a moderator for the unofficial Marvel Studios subreddit, which had, at the time of his hiring, one million members and boasts over three million today.

His understanding of comics makes him especially adept at writing about the MCU and DCU. Pierre routinely uses his extensive knowledge of comic books to help write insightful features and assist his colleagues in enhancing their news articles.

Before joining The Direct, Pierre graduated from Breda University in 2020 with a Bachelor of Science in Creative Media and Game Technologies. But, he is currently pursuing a Masters in Writing for Script & Screen at Falmouth University.
