The Marvel Method is a form of comic book writer-artist collaboration in which the artist works from a story synopsis from the writer, rather than a full script, creating page-by-page plot details on his or her own, effectively acting as a co-writer, after which the work is returned to the writer for the insertion of dialogue and editing. The technique takes its name from its widespread use at Marvel Comics beginning in the 1960s, primarily under writer-editor Stan Lee and artists Jack Kirby, and Steve Ditko.

Famous quotes containing the words marvel and/or method:
“I marvel at the many ways we, as black people, bend but do not break in order to survive. This astonishes me, and what excites me I write about. Everyone of us is a wonder. Everyone of us has a story.”

“I have a new method of poetry. All you got to do is look over your notebooks ... or lay down on a couch, and think of anything that comes into your head, especially the miseries.... Then arrange in lines of two, three or four words each, don’t bother about sentences, in sections of two, three or four lines each.”
—Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)
