Stradley began working in comics in 1984 with issue 86 of Marvel's Star Wars.[1] In 1986, he co-founded Dark Horse Comics with Mike Richardson and became its vice president.[1][4]

In 1988, Dark Horse acquired the rights to Twentieth Century Fox's Aliens franchise and a year later the Predator license. In 1990, Stradley wrote the crossover, Aliens Versus Predator.

In the early 1990s Dark Horse acquired the license for Star Wars comics and relaunched the line.[1] Stradley and Richardson co-wrote the Crimson Empire miniseries, and in 2002 Stradley became Senior Editor for Dark Horse's Star Wars series,[1] a role he retained until 2014, when Marvel regained the Star Wars comics rights.[5][6]

Stradley retired from Dark Horse on February 26, 2021.[7]

He was nominated for "Best Editor" in the Eisner Awards in 1992.
