Marvel Comics to Move Publishing Operations to California, Report Says
The move will bring about 100 staffers to Disney’s Burbank base and consolidate comics with film and television teams, Marvel said.
- On Thursday, Marvel Comics announced it is relocating its publishing division from New York City to Burbank, California, while naming Stephen Wacker as Editor-in-Chief to replace C.B. Cebulski.
- Disney aims to unite Marvel's publishing and film units in Burbank; the decision was prompted by the expiration of Marvel's Manhattan office lease set for next year.
- Wacker returns to lead the publishing division after leaving in the early 2020s, while Cebulski transitions to Tokyo as Editor, Asia Originals, overseeing manga and graphic fiction expansion.
- Around 100 New York-based employees must relocate to California by July 2027, with the company beginning orientation sessions for staff and families next week.
- This move concludes Marvel's 90-year history in New York, announced just before San Diego Comic-Con next week, where the company will present its creative direction to the industry.
