As we’ve often said, to the world at large, Marvel looks like a giant octopus that’s out to swallow the galaxy – which, by the way, we are. But we are, in fact, a rather small and intimate company. Jeph Loeb Read Quote
If I were to take five comic books, from four different publishers and Marvel, and lay them out, even if you didn’t know the characters, you would be able to take a look at that Marvel comic and go, ‘That’s Marvel.’ There’s something unique about the way the story is presented. Jeph Loeb Read Quote
We always have a little comedy. It’s the Marvel secret sauce. I think it’s what helps Marvel resonate with the audience, that, yes, we’re in the joke, too. Jeph Loeb Read Quote
The best thing I can say about ‘Teen Wolf Too’ is that it’s the only time anyone ever referred to me as Preston Sturges. Leonard Maltin wrote that ‘Teen Wolf Too’ made ‘Teen Wolf’ look like Preston Sturges. I’ve always prided myself on that. Jeph Loeb Read Quote
I’m not sure that, for a lot of people, the real world is an easy place to live in. And yet we still soldier on. Jeph Loeb Read Quote
I went to Columbia film school; that’s where I met Matthew Weisman. We then became writing partners, graduated, and moved out to Los Angeles. I didn’t know a soul. Jeph Loeb Read Quote
What’s true of the Marvel brand is that we’re not as invested in the cape and the cowl as we are in the individuals. That goes all the way back to Stan Lee, from the very beginning. Jeph Loeb Read Quote
One of the things that I really admire about the Marvel motion pictures is that, in one year, ‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier,’ which was a taut political thriller, and ‘Guardians of the Galaxy,’ which was a cosmic comedy, came out, and they could not be more different, and yet they both felt very Marvel.

I started working as a movie writer and a movie producer… all the way back to ‘Teen Wolf’ and ‘Commando.’ All of those experiences, plus working both at DC and at Marvel – each of those things are bricks in the wall. Jeph Loeb Read Quote
When I grew up reading comics, the part in the Marvel universe that was so exciting was that you could have a battle going on in ‘Iron Man’ and then, suddenly, Thor would fly overhead, and you realized, ‘Oh, it’s all one place.’ Jeph Loeb Read Quote
