Less than a month before the city hosts San Diego Comic-Con Málaga, the biggest event in popular culture celebrated from September 25 to 28 for the first time outside the United States, the names of guests who will participate in the event are being revealed. This time, the organization itself has announced on their social networks that Málaga will feature Jeph Loeb (Stamford, 1956) as a special guest, "a true legend of comics, television, and cinema, whose stories have captivated the imagination of millions of fans worldwide," they advance.

An American screenwriter and television producer, he is known for his work in the Marvel Comics superhero universe. His television credits include Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., as well as cult series like Lost and Smallville.

His career began in film, writing and producing Teen Wolf and Commando. In comics, his graphic novels Batman: The Long Halloween and Superman For All Seasons are already reference works that have inspired James Gunn’s Superman; The Batman and The Penguin by Matt Reeves; Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight trilogy, as well as Smallville and Gotham.

In the 2000s, Loeb joined Marvel Comics, where he wrote for series such as Hulk, Captain America, and Ultimate X-Men. He also worked as an executive producer on the television series Heroes, which aired between 2006 and 2010.

His extensive professional career as a writer and producer, combined with his mastery in presenting Marvel characters for television and cinema, has earned him a Peabody Award and two Emmy nominations.

His presence, which reinforces the organization's commitment to placing Málaga on the international circuit of major conventions, is added to others already confirmed such as the president, editor, and artistic director of DC Comics, Jim Lee, and the Japanese illustrator for Marvel, Peach Momoko, who will discuss her work for the multinational at the Palacio de Congresos de Málaga.

Confirmed stars

Also joining the cast of this first edition of the event in Málaga is the British-Spanish actor Taz Skylar, one of the stars of the manga adaptation ‘One Piece’ which is a hit on Netflix. With the trailer of the second season just released, slated for 2026, Skylar will be able to give some hints about the new episodes, which are kept under tight wraps. The list of confirmed guests doesn’t end there. Alongside the actor, SDCCM will also welcome stars Norman Reedus and Melissa McBride (‘The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon’), and actor Nicholas Denton (‘Talamasca: the secret order’), as well as Goya Award-winning composer Lucas Vidal, who composed the official soundtrack of San Diego Comic-Con Málaga.

The rest of the names and titles will be revealed at the official presentation of the entire program, which will take place next Thursday, September 4, in Madrid.
