Editor-in-Chief at [[Marvel Comics]] between 2000-2011, and a very polarising figure indeed. Started off as an artist, probably best known for his work on [[Daredevil]]. He took the editor job in 2000 and, while comic sales have risenrose since he took over, they are still a shadow of the sales in the [[Silver Age]] through the 1980s.
 
Currently{{when}} holds the position of Marvel's Chief Creative Officer, tasked to "ensure that all portrayals of Marvel's characters and stories remain true to the essence of Marvel history."
 
'''{{examples|Some of his editorial decisions:'''}}
 
* [[Spider-Man]]'s ''[[One More Day]]'', which attempts to make Peter Parker [[Younger and Hipper]] by dissolving his marriage to Mary Jane Watson.
* [[X-Men (Comic Book)|Jean Grey]] coming [[Back Fromfrom the Dead]] was also "corrected" by having her killed off, despite her massive [[Character Development]] since then.
* He evidently preferred Emma Frost being altered to more of a [[Heel Face Turn]] and [[Spoiled Brat]] than even when she was a villain. So he "rewarded" Emma by sticking her into Jean's place, including being Scott Summers's [[Love Interest]], which started with them kissing over Jean's grave.
* He and [[Brian Bendis]] had [[The Avengers (Comic Book)|The Wasp]] killed off, again claiming that her now widowed husband, Hank Pym, is now "more interesting" without her.
* Forced [[Wolverine]] and Nick Fury to drop their iconic cigars, which they'd had for roughly 30 and 40 years respectively. Killing, maiming and making deals with Satan stand-ins is okay otherwise. [[Fridge Logic|Smoking doesn't even harm Wolverine]], due to his [[Healing Factor]]. When he temporarily lost it, he had to quit.
* Censoring Trade Paperbacks.
