Brand New Day at Marvel Comics: Disney Overhauls Leadership and Strategy
The Beat reports that Marvel Comics is undergoing a significant executive shake-up after David Gabriel’s departure. Brad Winderbaum will lead Marvel’s publishing as Head of Marvel Television, Animation, Comics & Franchise, with EiC C.B. Cebulski reporting to him. David Abdo will become General Manager, Comics & Franchise, reporting to Winderbaum. Disney’s broader reorganization signals a push toward greater operational integration and potential MCU synergies, while addressing long-standing publishing issues like the backlist. The changes come as Disney recalibrates under Josh D’Amaro, and reflect an effort to give Marvel more breathing room without discarding its legacy leadership.
