Marvel Method

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 thy master hath not eaten thee for a word, for thou art not so long by the head as honorificabilitudinitatibus.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Women are denied masturbation even more severely than men and that’s another method of control—they’re not taught to please themselves.... Most women—it takes them a while to warm up to the “situation” but once they get into it, I’m sure they’re going to get just as hooked as—well, everyone I know is!
    Lydia Lunch (b. 1959)
