During the 1970s, he wrote for Warren Publishing's black-and-white horror-comics anthologies Creepy and Eerie, and Vampirella. He also wrote for DC Comics' House of Mystery and Archie Comics' Red Circle Sorcery.

In the 1980s, Brennan campaigned to have depictions of smoking in comics banned, which led then-Gov. Bill Clinton of Arkansas to issue a proclamation designating January 1990 as "T. Casey Brennan Month."[2]

My parents named me that, but decided not to use it. They decided to call me by my middle name, Casey. So all through my school days I was always Casey Brennan. When I began publishing, I decided to appropriate my first initial.
