	Article 10: Silly Billy
		Marvel Comics is the industry's biggest juggernaut, and in president Bill Jemas it appears to have an idiot at the wheel.
		Bill Jemas isn't just making himself available to the press - he's aggressively marketing himself as one of the key faces of the new Marvel.
		Jemas is showing signs of doing this because he likes the attention, rather than because it's helping the business.

	My Dinner with Jemas
		Jemas explained that earlier this year, he came up with an idea for a series and, so far, none of the writers he tapped has come up with a proposal to do it justice.
		Jemas waved his hand and said that was fine, but he still planned to do it himself.
		It was Jemas' idea to jump-start the flagging Spider-Man franchise by bringing the character into the modern age.

	Why does everybody hate Bill Jemas? - NEWSARAMA
		Yeah, I know that Bill Jemas is an annoying man who often makes me feel like flying over to New York just to strangle him, but surely the positive aspects of his presidency of Marvel topple the negatives?
		When Jemas became pres, his first action was to give Quesada the EIC position.
		i hate jemas for taking larroca off a book he was very happy doing and replacing him with a mess known as igor who can't even compare to sal.

		Bill Jemas begins the book in his usual fashion by slamming the very retailers that order and stock his product, lumping together "small" retailers with "dirty, messy and confusing" stores.
		Or perhaps Bill Jemas is simply an unprofessional person who doesn't understand that insulting everyone else to gain attention is a tactic best left in junior high school.
		Levitz, in a show of class that would undoubtedly be lost on Jemas, refuses to comment and get into a war of barbs and cut downs that serve no purpose beyond generating negative publicity.

	FANBOY PLANET.com .: mc-ffwaidfired :.
		At any rate, Waid rejected whatever notion Jemas tried to plant in his head, saying it was too different from what they had hired him to do in the first place.
		In the Newsarama interview, Waid expresses his belief that Jemas may be replacing him with...Jemas himself, but reminds his fans that it's "...(Jemas') company, his prerogative." Naturally, in the span of 24 hours, the internet has been aflame.
		Think about it, put out some nasty rumors that this is all some evil plot by Bill, that there are 3000 submissions gathering dust, that the editors aren't reading pitches and the fewer people that submit, the better the chances of those that are already through the door.

	COMICON.com: MARVEL'S BILL JEMAS ON '411'
		I'm glad that Jemas is trying to get DC to use their vast resources to reach out to new readers.
		After all, in Jemas' own words they're people living in their parent's basement and the closest thing they've got to female companionship is their Elektra comics.
		Also, remember when Bill Jemas said in response to the online community's responses to one of his columns at AICN, "The best part was that a few honest, angry, naïve AICN regulars replied to the fake posts with stuff that was funnier and/or remarkably more dumb than anything I could have imagined."

		Frankly, while there are times Jemas is right, I guess the most significant reason Marvel has or was as good as it is or was is due to Quesada and crew being able to wrangle writers as good as Morrison or Bendis or JMS to work on comic books.
		Jemas doesn't seem to be making his job any easier.
		Bill Jemas i will admit has done a great deal of good for marvel, but his policies are increasingly questionable and controversial.

		Bill Jemas came to prominence in Marvel during the bankruptcy reorganisations, originally from Marvel-owned Fleer, he launched the Ultimate line and eventually was key in replacing editor-in-chief Bob Harras with Joe Quesada.
		Years later, that partnership would suffer as controversy was suddenly frowned on by other Marvel execs and Joe Quesada began to disassociate himself from Jemas in the eyes of Marvel employees and freelancers, even as Bill Jemas was spearheading the Epic line which promised career jumping on point for wannabe comic creators.
		Bill Jemas' courting of the press stopped, and his influence within the company was curtailed.

		Bill Jemas, the company’s President of Publishing, is the man behind the managerial steering wheel of the embattled "House of Ideas." While Joe Quesada directs the editorial operations, it is Jemas who oversees the Publishing division as a whole.
		While Jemas has been reported in controversy, he has also presided over such notable achievements as Marvel’s Ultimate line, and at a period when many of the top 10 comics feature the Marvel logo.
		While fan and retailer opinions of Jemas have been mixed, one thing is for certain: Bill Jemas sits at the top of the mountain and has a lot of fun doing it.

		Jemas' Epic imprint, which failed to live up to its promise, is withering on the vine, and boneheaded creative decisions involving "Fantastic Four" and "Thunderbolts" have been reversed.

		Bill, you already hinted at the possibility of other comics to come from 360ep that aren't based on licensed comics.
		Jemas: And to give Donald sort of a pat on the back, he did set-up a universe that's very easy to operate in creatively, given the universe and patterns that Donald set-up.

		Jemas faced a challenge shared by many small business owners and managers—the need to find ways to help employees make the most of their time at work.

	Barbelith Underground > Comic Books > Bill Jemas' writing credits.
		I couldn't help but notice that Marvel president Bill Jemas is sharing credit with other writers for an awful lot of books, and I couldn't help but wonder, since all I really know of Jemas is that he's a suit who's expressed his admiration for the 60's Batman series.
		Editors at Marvel and DC have contributed to storylines for decades without needing to feed their ego with a story credit but Jemas has to have his name on everything.
		At a con I was at last year, Bendis says they give Jemas a credit in Ultimate Spider-Man because it was his idea to do the re-vamp and the magazine.

		Jemas was a little disapointed that trading cards would not be a substantial part of the marketing plans he could devise.

		Bill Jemas has for weeks promised details of his new company, but the details about the project -- 360epm -- have been slow in coming.
		The "epm" stands for "Entertainment Property Management." The company seems to be billing itself as a new combination of agents -- who sell concepts to publishers, broadcasters, and licensors -- and consultants, who help create and develop properties, acting as their agent as well.
		Besides Bill Jemas acting as CEO, the company has Alex Hamby (known for HeroRealm) as its webmaster and Russ Brown (who worked with Jemas in licensing for Marvel).
