Scott Mitchell Rosenberg (Platinum Studios)

Malibu Comics founder and Platinum Studios CEO Scott Mitchell Rosenberg traces his path from launching one of the most innovative independent publishers of the 80s and 90s—pioneering computer coloring technology and creating the ambitious Ultraverse shared superhero universe—to becoming a major player in Hollywood adaptations with properties like Men in Black and Cowboys & Aliens that became blockbuster films. Scott reveals the story behind Malibu's groundbreaking titles, the decision to sell the company to Marvel in 1994, and his strategic pivot to founding Platinum Studios with a focus on developing intellectual properties specifically designed to work across both #comics and film/television. He reflects on memorable collaborations, projects that never made it to screen, what he's most proud of from the Malibu era, the biggest lessons learned from running a comic company during the industry's tumultuous 90s, and how the relationship between comics and Hollywood has evolved.
