Jeph Loeb Named Head of Marvel Television
Jeph Loeb has officially been named the Head of Marvel Television. Marvel Studios proved themselves in the theaters with the release of their first project independent of other film studios, Iron Man. Now, they're setting their sites on television and hired the best man for the job. No stranger to comics or TV, Jeph Loeb could potentially bring Iron Man-caliber projects to the small screen. He has already proved himself as a producer/writer on both Lost and Heroes (don't worry, he had enough sense to get himself fired after the second season) and has already hinted at live-action Marvel superhero shows in development.

Upcoming shows in the Marvel lineup include The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes on Disney XD, a new Ultimate Spider-Man series, and four new Marvel anime series (Iron Man, Wolverine, Blade and the X-Men) written by Warren Ellis that will begin premiering one by one on G4 early next year.
