Writer/editor Stan Lee (1922-2018) made comic-book history together with Jack Kirby in 1961 with Fantastic Four #1. The monumental popularity of its new style inspired Lee to develop similarly themed characters - including the Hulk and X-Men with Kirby, Spider-Man and Doctor Strange with Steve Ditko, and Daredevil with Bill Everett. After shepherding his creations through dozens of issues - in some cases a hundred or more - Lee allowed other writers to take over, but he maintained steady editorial control. Eventually, he helped expand Marvel into a multimedia empire. In recent years, his frequent cameo appearances in Marvel's films established Lee as one of the world's most famous faces.

Roy Thomas joined the Marvel Bullpen as a writer and editor under Stan Lee, scripting key runs of nearly every title of the time- Amazing Spider-Man, Avengers, Daredevil, Doctor Strange, Sub-Mariner, Thor, X-Men and more. He wrote the first 10 years of Marvel's Conan the Barbarian and Savage Sword of Conan; and launched such series as Defenders, Iron Fist, Invaders and Warlock. At DC, he developed All-Star Squadron, Infinity Inc. and related titles, proving instrumental in reviving the Golden Age Justice Society of America. Thomas later became editor of Alter Ego, a magazine devoted to comic-book history, and co-scripted the sword-and-sorcery films Fire and Ice and Conan the Destroyer.

Beginning as Stan Lee's production assistant, Herb Trimpe (1939-2015) went on to pencil a seven-year run on Marvel mainstay Incredible Hulk - during which he debuted the future X-Man, Wolverine - as well as 1970s classics Marvel Team-Up, Shogun Warriors and Godzilla. He was equally prolific during the 1980s on Nick Fury, The 'Nam and G.I. Joe; the 1990s saw him illustrate Marvel's First Family on Fantastic Four Unlimited. Trimpe's war-story credits also include the introduction of the Phantom Eagle, the WWI aviator hero whose adventures were later chronicled by Garth Ennis.

During the 1960s, when males dominated the industry, Marie Severin earned the respect of her peers with her seemingly limitless talents in every facet of comic-book production - from pencilling to inking to lettering to colouring. Her earliest recorded work was for EC Comics in 1949, and she went on to contribute colouring across the famous publisher's line before moving to Marvel's predecessor Atlas Comics. In the Silver Age of comics, Severin made her mark in the Bullpen, drawing the adventures of Doctor Strange and becoming the company's head colourist before going on to concentrate on pencilling. Her extensive contribution to Marvel across a wide array of titles includes providing the original design for Spider-Woman. Severin was inducted into the Will Eisner Comics Hall of Fame in 2001.

Frank Giacoia (1924-1988) pencilled and inked his way through the Golden Age at Timely/Marvel and elsewhere, including Avon, Crestwood, Fawcett and Lev Gleason. Becoming best known as an inker, he provided finishes to the pencils of such industry legends as Gene Colan, Carmine Infantino, Gil Kane and Jack Kirby, inking the latter's Captain America. In the comic-strip field, he worked on Marvel's Amazing Spider-Man and Incredible Hulk strips, as well as Flash Gordon, Thorne McBride and others.
