Soloman Brodsky (April 22, 1923 – June 4, 1984) was an American comic book artist who, as Marvel Comics' Silver Age production manager, was one of the key architects of the small company's expansion to a major pop culture conglomerate.
He later rose to vice president, operations and vice president, special projects.
"Sol was really my right-hand man for years", described Marvel editor and company patriarch Stan Lee.Brodsky worked primarily behind the scenes, uncredited.
His accomplishments include co-creating, with letterer Artie Simek, the long-familiar logo of The Amazing Spider-Man, as well as other Marvel logos still in use in the mid-2000s.
He was belatedly credited after decades as the inker of Jack Kirby's pencil art for The Fantastic Four #3-4 (March–May 1962) and many other landmark comics.
Lee described Brodsky as "my assistant for years and the company's production head.
He could write, he could draw, he could ink — he could do everything."
