Marvel Entertainment has unveiled the creative team for its new Ultimate Spider-Man animated series.
Eisner and Emmy award-winning writer Paul Dini (Batman: The Animated Series, Lost) has been named creative consultant for the project and will write the pilot.
The Man of Action team (Ben 10), which includes Joe Casey, Joe Kelly, Duncan Rouleau and Steven T Seagle, will script the show, direct the writing staff and story edit.
Brian Michael Bendis, who was responsible for the original reimagining of Peter Parker in the Ultimate Spider-Man comic, will be overseeing the development of the series as consulting producer.
"When we first sat down to discuss Ultimate Spider-Man, we put together a wish list of the most exciting talent working in animation who would bring the best voice and creative direction to the show, and I’m proud to say we got them all," said head of Marvel TV Jeph Loeb.
"We want Ultimate Spider-Man to be a showcase for Marvel Animation and Spider-Man is the perfect character to give fans just what they want."
