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.
