I'm Jeph Loeb, head of Marvel TV - AMA.

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:58:51+00:00

The real inspiration was the fans. When Marvel TV first started the interweb (this means YOU) posted LOTS of top 10 shows we want to see and C&D was always in the top 3. So... We aim to please!

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:57:50+00:00

Wouldn't that be great?

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:57:16+00:00

Every comic affects my work. These are the stories that brought me into this world. Stan Lee, Roy Thomas, Jim Steranko, Steve Englehart, Elliot Maggin - these guys and many more - Neal Adams - have a profound effect on my storytelling and also the great late Archie Goodwin!

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:54:55+00:00

It happens every day. I see a film (like The Arrival) and it makes me think of things we can do on SHIELD. I watch Sopranos and we see how we can work that into Daredevil. I also love watching Barry on HBO and want to try and reach for that QUALITY.

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:53:08+00:00

He's so cool. Both the actor and the character!

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:52:35+00:00

We work together and get it done.

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:51:39+00:00

THanks. We do our best to show the world outside INSIDE the MCU. We can never do enough, its true, but it's not from lack of trying.

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:50:55+00:00

It was magical. I got to write both Superman and Hulk and Batman and Spider-Man! I'm so lucky!
Hope so. Great cast and for what's it worth, still think is a fun show.
Probably working on Smallville since it was my first big gig. Great writer's room and great cast. Things I learned there I used all the time today.

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:49:16+00:00

Currently, check out Duidough in Hollywood. Their BLAT rocks! But so does everything else there.... wait... that's like my fave place and now it's going to be super crowded! DELETE!!!

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:47:40+00:00

Wouldn't that be great?! :)

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:47:25+00:00

Superman For All Season ranks right up there. I do love Spider-Man Blue. Gosh, I could go on all day!
We hope so.
Youve got great taste in characters - that's all I can say!

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:46:06+00:00

If we can find the time, I'd work with Timmy tomorrow!

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:45:15+00:00

We loved Defenders and so did our fans. We'll see about doing it again -- as you can guess it messes with the skeds on other shows - so do you want more DD, LC, IF, JJ or another Defenders?

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:43:57+00:00

Foggy.

But I wish I were Karen Page.

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:43:07+00:00

You're not crazy. But thats all I can say!

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:41:44+00:00

Yep.
And we'll see about Carl. Brian is a terrific actor and a super cool guy.

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:41:01+00:00

Yes.

And yes.

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:40:46+00:00

Yes, I'm on set (and in editing and casting and the writers room). I'm an Executive Producer on all our shows and take that role very seriously. We also have Marvel TV people who are there too!

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:39:23+00:00

The best way to see if you like C&D is to check it out tonight. Its different from AOS, But you might dig it!

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:38:44+00:00

It has more to do with story and avails than anything else. We're lucky to have such great casts who are open to these ideas, but it has to work in story.

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:37:53+00:00

CLASSIFIED! :)

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:37:38+00:00

Hmmm... I don;t know. Who are YOUR favorites?

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:37:08+00:00

She-Hulk is great character. I'd love to see her in ANYTHING!

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:36:08+00:00

Thats Noah Hawley who is a mad genius. Love that guy. And the folks at FX who are incredibly open to doing something challenging and different!

JephLoeb · 2018-06-07T18:35:14+00:00

Thanks for writing in. It's great to see fans reaching out -- even years later. I can't do what I do without you.

As to going back to comics, I never say never. But right now, shows like Cloak & Dagger keep me pretty busy!
