* ExecutiveMeddling: Writers of the X-Men had difficulty bringing fan favorites BackFromTheDead due to the "whoever is dead stays dead" policy, though that mandate probably kept them from killing characters willy nilly as well. Though JMS was part of the planning process, he fought with him over the execution of Spiderman: One More Day.

* Attempting to avoid the comic book stereotype of DeathIsCheap and prevent CListFodder by adopting a "dead is dead" policy, which was later ignored to bring back Psylocke, Colossus, and Harry Osborn. Quesada stated that the policy wasn't an absolute mandate, but rather a rule of thumb to present to writers so that stories requiring a death or resurrection of a character wouldn't become frequent or produced without gravity.

* [[ExecutiveMeddling "Fixing"]] the Sins Past story arc of ComicBook/JMSSpiderMan to replace Peter Parker with Norman Osborn as the father of Gwen Stacy's children, as that would make Spider-Man appear too old.

* CrisisCrossover: Holy Crap! While Quesada was EIC, the main Marvel books had Avengers Disassembled, which lead to House of M (Which also continued into Messiah Complex, Messiah War, and Second Coming for the X-Men books), Civil War, World War Hulk, Secret Invasion which lead into Dark Reign and then Siege. Meanwhile, Marvel Cosmic had Annihilation (happening at the same time as the Civil War on Earth), followed by a sequel called Annihilation: Conquest. War of Kings spun out into Marvel Cosmic from Secret Invasion (fitting, considering the Skrull are space villains), and the fallout from THAT finally finishes with The Thanos Imperative. In the AlternateUniverse ComicBook/UltimateMarvel there was Ultimatum.

* BigApplesauce: He's a native New Yorker, raised in Queens interestingly enough.

* OneOfUs: Obviously a comic book fan, he said as a kid he enjoyed Marvel's more diverse and socially relevant comics to [[FandomRivalry the white-washed and godlike DC heroes]].

* ComicBook/SpiderMan's ''ComicBook/OneMoreDay'', which attempts to make Peter Parker YoungerAndHipper by dissolving his marriage to Mary Jane Watson. Both the concept and execution of this story became a major BaseBreaker for Marvel fans.

* Forced ComicBook/{{Wolverine}} and ComicBook/NickFury to drop their iconic cigars, which they'd had for roughly 30 and 40 years respectively. Killing, maiming and making deals with Satan stand-ins is okay otherwise. [[FridgeLogic Smoking doesn't even harm Wolverine]], due to his HealingFactor. When he temporarily lost it, he had to quit.

* NeverLiveItDown: While he'd always been known for some fairly controversial views about how the Marvel Universe should be run, he was in general considered a massive improvement over his predecessor Bob Harras, who had infamously exacerbated Marvel's legendary mismanagement in the '90s. Then he mandated One More Day to be done, and suddenly his name was a byword for an overbearing higher-up with too much creative control and goodwill for him dried up (though it is not actually true that he was the only one pulling for the retcon and several earlier concepts for the story were arguably even worse). He built up a reputation as a man who was in the comics business to make everything how it was when he was a kid and/or vent personal issues, only exacerbated by a number of possibly apocryphal but widely-circulated quotes attributed to him where he disparages the fans.

* AuthorTract: Marriage is just a piece of paper. [[InsaneTrollLogic At the same time, you shouldn't have children out of wedlock]].

* InsaneTrollLogic: His statements about, reasoning behind, and explanations of One More Day and One Moment in Time are almost as confusing and contradictory as the comics themselves.

* AudienceAlienatingPremise: While many Marvel fans enjoy Shipping Spider-Man with other characters (such as [[DatingCatwoman Black Cat]]), the general reaction to OMD ending the Parker Marriage [[DealWithTheDevil the way]] it did was rather negative.

* The creation of three successful imprints: ''ComicBook/ThePunisherMAX'', ''ComicBook/UltimateMarvel'', and Marvel Knights

* RunningGag: Fans have noticed that characters tend to have their marriages ended. Also, while the stated intention is to explore storylines where they are single, the characters tend to get paired with another love interest not long after.
