In a move indicative of Marvel's continued push with global licensing, the Kuwait City based Teshkeel Media Group today announced that it has signed an agreement with Marvel to bring Arabic-language Marvel comics, magazines and trade paperbacks to the Middle East. The multi-year agreement will see the comics translated into a variety of languages throughout the region, with Teshkeel reporting availability of the Marvel editions will run from the Arabian Gulf to North Africa. Neither Teshkeel nor Marvel commented on any adjustment to content specific to the new marketplace.

In 1994, Marvel briefly abolished the position, replacing Tom DeFalco with five "group editors", though each held the title "editor-in-chief" and had some editors underneath them. It reinstated the overall editor-in-chief position in 1995, installing Bob Harras. Joe Quesada became editor-in-chief in 2000.

[I]f Routh is right about 2007 potentially being Marvel's best ever, then Wall Street estimates would appear to be way too low, particularly on the sales side. In 2004, Marvel reported revenue of $513.5 million and a profit of $1.04 per share. (Marvel's earnings peak was not 2004 though. The company posted earnings of $1.11 a share in 2005 even though sales fell.)
