Jeph Loeb becomes executive vice president for Marvel Entertainment
Another overrated writer has been promoted to a spot he never really deserved. Here, it's Jeph Loeb, whose most recent work of the limp as a comics writer was The Ultimates and the Red Hulk storyline (I vaguely recall reading some of his work on Batman 8 years ago, the Hush storyline, which was nearly 12 issues of nothing), who's now been promoted to head a special TV development division they've formed. True, he'll probably be out of the comics scripting field now, but I sadly figure his influence will be felt on more of their projects even behind the scenes.
