With the impending sale of Marvel to Disney set to be finalized by the end of the year, we could be seeing the first significant sign of change.

Variety is reporting that Marvel Studios chairman David Maisel will step down as soon as Disney takes control of Marvel. Maisel joined the company in 2004 as the president of the newly formed Marvel Studios and was instrumental in raising the $525 million capital that allowed Marvel to finance and produce its own films, including “Iron Man” and “The Incredible Hulk.”
