Marie Severin, Marvel Entertainment icon, died at 89. She worked on #DrStrange, The Incredible #Hulk and many more titles during her decades - yes, decades - at Marvel.
During Severin’s tenure, Marvel’s creative staff was almost entirely male, and it was difficult for her to find her place socially within the cliquey industry. “They say that women gossip, well networking is male gossip, and they ‘networked’ all the time,” she once joked. “Sure, I’d have lunch with them once in a while, but the conversations were always male; it was just normal. So you’re sort of out of it.”
