C.B. Cebulski, the editor-in-chief of Marvel Comics, has praised DC’s Aquaman, congratulating those involved with the film.
A lot is made of the rivalry between Marvel and DC, with some fans choosing to support one brand instead of the other. Those involved behind the scenes don’t see it as a rivalry, however, as they are often heard congratulating each other on their successes.
This has happened once again with the release of Aquaman as C.B. Cebulski, the editor-in-chief of Marvel Comics, has taken to Twitter to profess his love for the film:
“Just back from Aquaman. Really enjoyed it! Such a fun flick, the spectacle of it all made me feel like a kid in the theater. Can’t wait to take my nephew & niece. Big congrats to @geoffjohns @JimLee @creepypuppet on this superhero splash!”

While it is surely only a small sub-section of audiences that actively root for the failure of one side or the other, it’s nice to see employees of each brand able to praise what the other has been able to achieve.
