Dan Slott has built a loyal fan base by combining old-school fun with stories and characterizations friendly to new readers. Following a run on She-Hulk which combined his sly humor and encyclopedic Marvel knowledge with an imaginative take on a comic-book law firm Slott moved into the upper echelon of Marvel writers, launching Avengers: The Initiative and taking the reins on Mighty Avengers from Brian Michael Bendis.

When Marvel gave Spider-Man a fresh start in 2008, Slott was one of several rotating writers on a thrice-monthly Amazing Spider-Man. Through three years and a hundred issues, Slott became the writer most closely identified with the web-slinger's "Brand New Day" era. Amazing hit the "Big Time" when Slott took over as full-time writer, chronicling a new chapter in the life of Peter Parker with artists such as Humberto Ramos, Stefano Caselli and Marcos Martin.

Mexican artist Humberto Ramos made his American comics debut in 1994 with DC's Impulse, featuring the Flash's brash grandson.

In 1998, Ramos launched the creator-owned Crimson under Wildstorm's Cliffhanger imprint, illustrating the title for more than two years. He then moved to Marvel, becoming one of the most recognizable and innovative talents in comics.

Seamlessly blending both Eastern and Western styles, the artist's artist has worked on many of Marvel's most iconic characters including Spider-Man, Wolverine and the X-Men in addition to a run on the fan-favorite Runaways.

Ryan Stegman is an American comic book artist best known for his work on Marvel Comics characters including She-Hulk, X-23 and Spider-Man.

In 2010, having already contributed to several works for the company, he signed an exclusivity agreement with Marvel.
