Early life and career

Bachelor of Arts degree from
Rutgers University in 1980 and a
Juris Doctor from
Harvard Law School in 1983.
He became president of
Fleer Entertainment Group and Fleer Corp in 1993.
Marvel Comics
Jemas was appointed as executive vice president of Marvel Entertainment Group in 1993. In January 2000, he became president of consumer products, publishing and new media — essentially Marvel Comics' publisher. During his tenure, with editor-in-chief
Joe Quesada, the company experienced a rapid growth in profitability and critical acclaim. However his tendencies towards
micromanagement and conscious stirring-up of the fan community made him a controversial figure.
Marvel during his tenure created the
Ultimate Marvel Universe. Other, later initiatives, such as the titles
Trouble,
Marville and
The Call were less successful. Upon his departure from the company, Jemas continued to work with Marvel in a non-executive capacity through mid-2004. He also wrote or co-wrote Marvel
comic books including
Namor,
Origin, and
Marville.
Although
Gail Simone wrote on her blog that she
ghost wrote for Jemas during his tenure at Marvel, she later clarified that she was referring to a comedic article about Marvel giving away free cookies rather than an actual comic.
