Chip Zdarsky has signed an exclusive deal with Marvel. Zdarsky has already made his mark with the publisher as the scribe behind Peter Parker: The Spectacular Spider-Man (with Adam Kubert; see: “Zdarsky and Kubert Take Spider-Man Back to Basics”), Star-Lord (with Kris Anka; see “Preview: 'Star-Lord' #1”), and Howard the Duck (with Joe Quinones).
