Back in the day, <strong>he was already involved in that whole DC hullabaloo around 52, but he also oversaw the Brand New Day era<\/strong> and Superior Spider-Man and has played a key role in the best modern runs of Daredevil, Captain Marvel, and Hawkeye, as well as helping create Ms. Marvel.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So yes: fans are right to expect an earthquake as soon as he settles into the position. After a decade of missteps, it was time to reclaim its place in the industry, which DC had been slowly taking away from it. <em>\u201cI truly believe that <strong>Marvel\u2019s best comics are still ahead of us<\/strong>, and I can\u2019t wait to add new floors to the House of Ideas\u201d<\/em>, he said. Stan Lee would be very proud.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Meanwhile, Cebulski is going to Asia, to coordinate the Marvel comics released there, a role that until now didn\u2019t exist and that they\u2019ve created expressly for him so as, basically, not to leave him out in the cold. Although <strong>over the next year we\u2019ll see the last of Cebulski\u2019s legacy<\/strong>, with the launch of the Midnight universe, we all hope, at last, to be True Believers again.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For years, Marvel has been synonymous with cinematic fun, superheroes, movies, shows, and A-list actors putting on tights, but&#8230; has anyone thought about the comics at all?
