The Marvel Method is a form of comic book writer-artist collaboration in which the artist works from a story synopsis from the writer, rather than a full script, creating page-by-page plot details on his or her own, effectively acting as a co-writer, after which the work is returned to the writer for the insertion of dialogue and editing. The technique takes its name from its widespread use at Marvel Comics beginning in the 1960s, primarily under writer-editor Stan Lee and artists Jack Kirby, and Steve Ditko.

Famous quotes containing the words marvel and/or method:
“I marvel at the many ways we, as black people, bend but do not break in order to survive. This astonishes me, and what excites me I write about. Everyone of us is a wonder. Everyone of us has a story.”
—Kristin Hunter (b. 1931)
“You that do search for every purling spring
Which from the ribs of old Parnassus flows,
And every flower, not sweet perhaps, which grows
Near thereabouts into your poesy wring;
You that do dictionary’s method bring
Into your rhymes, running in rattling rows;”
—Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)
