Known for his humor, encyclopedic knowledge of superhero lore, and dedication to continuity, Gruenwald played a critical role in shaping Marvel's universe and storytelling during his nearly two decades at the company.

His creative achievements include groundbreaking works like Squadron Supreme, editing popular comics such as the Avengers, Iron Man, and Thor during creative high points, innovative contributions to Quasar and Captain America, and leading the production of The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe. Gruenwald’s legacy also extends to the rules for time travel and alternate realities he established, which continue to influence the Marvel Cinematic Universe today.
