”Spider-Man: Beyond Amazing — The Exhibition” debuts at Comic-Con Museum
It seems quite fitting that this World Premier exhibition opening at the new Comic-Con Museum, in San Diego’s beautiful Balboa Park, coincides not only with next week’s return to the first full-scale San Diego Comic-Con since COVID struck, but also with the publication of “AutoMatters & More” number 750!

I spoke with Brian Crosby, Director of Themed Entertainment for Marvel. He told me that this exhibit is “largely focused on the comics, predominantly, because that’s really where his story begins … but we certainly sprinkle in some of those other pop culture elements.”

“Stan (Lee) is the reason we’re all here, at least for me and Marvel. Stan and Steve Ditko, they created this character back in 1962, and really he was a character that Stan’s publisher didn’t want to do. Stan had this idea to do a younger superhero — a teenager who had problems, and that was not what his publisher thought was going to sell. And so they told Stan to kind of shelve it. But there was a book called “Amazing Fantasy” that, as Stan tells the story, was going to be cancelled anyway and so he thought, ‘what the heck, I’ll throw that Spider character in there’ — and not only was he a teenager but also he was themed after a bug, and the publisher said ‘people don’t even like spiders, they hate spiders.’ Stan threw him in there anyways, the fans went nuts for it and the rest is history.”

Prior to his current position, and over a period of about ten years, Brian was a theme park designer for Walt Disney Imagineering. He helped design theme park attractions all over the world. He worked on “STAR WARS,” Marvel, “It’s A Small World,” “Tron” and a number of other theme park attractions. “When the Walt Disney Company purchased Marvel in 2009, it was kind of the beginning of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, so there wasn’t a huge awareness of the characters that everybody knows now — like Thor, Loki and the Guardians of the Galaxy. Having been a huge comic books fan I knew those characters, so I kind of immediately gravitated towards all Marvel stuff when I was at Imagineering, and then getting to know the folks at Marvel — in particular Joe Quesada, who was the Chief Creative Officer at the time. We became great friends and that’s how I was offered my current job, kind of overseeing all of these attractions and experiences for Marvel, since 2015.”

Jan, the Con-Com Museum, Spider-Man and this column are truly amazing 💥⚡️I thought your interview with Brian Crosby was especially interesting🌟🔥💫. What an exciting career he has! Your chat with him qualifies as a real scoop. You must have been exhausted to cover the entire museum. So much subject matter you could have written multi columns. 🎆 great work.
Thank you very much for your encouraging comments, David.
I agree that my interview of Brian really added to the uniqueness of my coverage of the press preview of this new exhibit at the Comic-Con Museum. Interviews help make my coverage stand apart from that of other journalists. I must remember to try to do more interviews. They are easy for me to do, because I use that same skills that I had developed interviewing clients to write and produce T.V. commercials for them for many years.
I wish that I could clone myself or, more realistically, find a partner who would come on board to help me in exchange for sharing in the proceeds of our efforts. For that to happen, I need to spend the time and search for such a person. Where can I find all of the time that I need???
