Marc reflects on his comics work for Marvel and DC, including The Flash and Amazing Spider-Man, his experience with the 2011 Green Lantern movie and what he learned from that project, and how he and his co-creators developed Arrow as the foundation for what became a decade-spanning shared TV universe.

He shares his origin story of discovering comics as a kid growing up in Brooklyn and Staten Island, working at comic retailer Jim Hanley's store during high school, and his transition from wanting to study animation at the School of Visual Arts to focusing on comics at NYU.
