==Career==
===Film and television===
Loeb's debut in filmmaking was his collaboration with Matthew Weisman in authoring the script of ''[[Teen Wolf]]''. The film was released on August 23, 1985, and was a notable starring role for [[Michael J. Fox]]. Loeb and Weisman then collaborated in writing the script of ''[[Commando (1985 film)|Commando]]''. The film was released on October 4, 1985, and starred [[Arnold Schwarzenegger]].<ref>{{Cite web|last=Marnell|first=Blair|title=Marvel Creates New TV Development Department, Jeph Loeb Named Executive V.P.|url=http://www.mtv.com/news/2596965/marvel-creates-new-tv-development-department-jeph-loeb-named-executive-vp/|access-date=2020-08-19|website=MTV News|language=en|archive-date=August 30, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210830164557/http://www.mtv.com/news/2596965/marvel-creates-new-tv-development-department-jeph-loeb-named-executive-vp/|url-status=dead}}</ref> His next screen credit was the film ''[[Burglar (film)|Burglar]]'', released on March 20, 1987. The plot was based on the novels of [[Lawrence Block]] about fictional [[burglar]] [[Bernie Rhodenbarr]]. His collaborators were Weisman and [[Hugh Wilson (director)|Hugh Wilson]].

The film was atypical for the time, featuring a female [[comedic]] role for starring actress [[Whoopi Goldberg]].<ref>{{Cite web|title=Jeph Loeb {{!}} TV Guide|url=https://www.tvguide.com/celebrities/jeph-loeb/credits/293661|access-date=2020-08-19|website=TVGuide.com|language=en|archive-date=August 9, 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170809233752/http://www.tvguide.com/celebrities/jeph-loeb/credits/293661/|url-status=live}}</ref> His second film that year was ''[[Teen Wolf Too]]'', a sequel of ''Teen Wolf'', which was co-written by Weisman and [[Tim Kring]]. The film was released on November 20, 1987. The film featured [[teen idol]] [[Jason Bateman]] and veteran actor [[John Astin]]. Loeb would re-team with Kring almost two decades later for the TV series ''Heroes''. Four years later, Loeb was working on a script for ''[[Flash (comics)|The Flash]]'' as a feature with [[Warner Bros.]] While the script deal fell through, Loeb met then publisher [[Jenette Kahn]] who asked Loeb to write a comic book for [[DC Comics]].

In 2002, Jeph Loeb wrote the script for the episode of ''[[Smallville]]'', entitled "Red", which introduced red [[kryptonite]] into the series. He became a supervising producer and has written many episodes since then. He signed a three-year contract, and although producers Miles Millar and Alfred Gough offered to keep him on for future seasons, Loeb left to care for his son, who had cancer (''See Comics career below'').<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.kryptonsite.com/loeb0805.htm|title=Interview with Loeb at Kryptonsite|publisher=Kryptonsite.com|access-date=October 14, 2010|archive-date=February 22, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120222050040/http://www.kryptonsite.com/loeb0805.htm|url-status=live}}</ref>

Loeb later became a writer/producer on the [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] TV series ''[[Lost (2004 TV series)|Lost]]'' during that show's second season. Leaving ''Lost'', Loeb went on to become Co-Executive Producer and writer on the NBC drama ''[[Heroes (American TV series)|Heroes]]'', which his colleague Tim Kring had created. Loeb wrote the teleplay for the first-season episodes "[[Heroes season 1#ep3|One Giant Leap]]" and "[[Unexpected (Heroes)|Unexpected]]". The show prominently features the artwork of Tim Sale, Loeb's longtime comics collaborator.<ref>George, Richard (October 26, 2010).

The series was nominated for the 2007 [[Emmy Award]] for Outstanding Drama Series, and a [[Writers Guild of America]] award for Best New Series. It won the [[People's Choice Award]] for Favorite New TV Drama, as well the [[Saturn Award]] for Best Network Television Series. It was also nominated for the [[Golden Globe]] Award for Best Dramatic Television Series.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Heroes|url=https://www.emmys.com/shows/heroes|access-date=2020-08-19|website=Television Academy|language=en|archive-date=August 3, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200803091437/https://www.emmys.com/shows/heroes|url-status=live}}</ref>

Loeb and Tim Kring were presented with the [[Jules Verne Award]] for Artistic Achievement at the [[Jules Verne Festival]] in [[Paris]], France, on April 22, 2007, for their work on ''Heroes''.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.julesvernefestival.com/jva/spip.php?article472&lang=en |title=Jules verne aventures, festival film aventure, festival film documentaire, film aventure, film documentaire |access-date=September 23, 2007 |archive-date=October 9, 2007 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071009145614/http://www.julesvernefestival.com/jva/spip.php?article472&lang=en |url-status=dead }} </ref> Loeb himself was also presented with a belated 2005 Jules Verne Award for Best Writing for his work on ''Smallville'', which he had not previously been given because his trip to the Festival that year had been cancelled due to his son's ill health.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--38uoHK6eE| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130801092245/http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--38uoHK6eE| archive-date=2013-08-01 | url-status=dead|title=Video of Loeb being presented with the award at YouTube|publisher=[[YouTube]]|date=April 23, 2007|access-date=October 14, 2010}}</ref>

On November 2, 2008, ''[[Variety (magazine)|Daily Variety]]'' reported that Loeb and fellow ''Heroes'' co-executive producer, [[Jesse Alexander]], were no longer employed on the series. In an interview with Comic Book Resources, Loeb stated, "As of today, Jesse Alexander and I have left ''Heroes''. I'm incredibly proud to have been a big part of the success a show with eight Emmy nods and a win this year for NBC.com. I will miss the superb cast and writing staff and wish everyone the best." At the time, Loeb had completed writing and producing the third-season episode, "[[Dual (Heroes)|Dual]]".<ref name=Variety/><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.cbr.com/heroes-shake-up-loeb-alexander-out/|title='Heroes' Shake-Up, Loeb & Alexander Out|publisher=[[Comic Book Resources]]|date=November 2, 2008|access-date=October 14, 2010|archive-date=August 19, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190819234704/https://www.cbr.com/heroes-shake-up-loeb-alexander-out/|url-status=live}}</ref>

On June 28, 2010, Marvel Entertainment, as part of its expansion into television, appointed Loeb to the position of Executive Vice President, Head of Television of the newly created [[Marvel Television]], in which Loeb would work with publisher Dan Buckley, to create both live-action and animated shows based on Marvel's catalog of characters.<ref name=MarvelTV/><ref name=ICV2/> During his time as the head of Marvel Television, he executive produced live-action shows within the Marvel Cinematic Universe such as ''[[Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.]]'', ''[[Agent Carter (TV series)|Agent Carter]]'', and ''[[Inhumans (TV series)|Inhumans]]'', shows on [[Netflix]] such as ''[[Daredevil (TV series)|Daredevil]]'', ''[[Jessica Jones (TV series)|Jessica Jones]]'', ''[[Iron Fist (TV series)|Iron Fist]]'', ''[[The Punisher (TV series)|The Punisher]]'', ''[[Luke Cage (TV series)|Luke Cage]]'', and the miniseries ''[[The Defenders (miniseries)|The Defenders]]'', along with younger adult shows like ''[[Runaways (TV series)|Runaways]]'' and ''[[Cloak & Dagger (TV series)|Cloak & Dagger]]'', and other live action or animated shows based on Marvel characters like ''[[M.O.D.O.K. (TV series)|M.O.D.O.K.]]'', ''[[The Gifted (American TV series)|The Gifted]]'', ''[[Legion (TV series)|Legion]]'', ''[[Helstrom (TV series)|Helstrom]]''.

In October 2019, [[Marvel Studios]] President [[Kevin Feige]] was promoted to Chief Creative Officer of [[Marvel Entertainment]], which includes Marvel Television, prompting Loeb to leave the company after nearly a decade. Loeb had been planning his departure, however, before Feige's promotion.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Holloway |first1=Daniel |last2=Donnelley |first2=Matt |title=Does Kevin Feige's Marvel Promotion Mean Ike Perlmutter's Endgame? |url=https://variety.com/2019/biz/news/kevin-feige-ike-perlmutter-marvel-disney-1203377802/ |access-date=October 22, 2019 |work=[[Variety (magazine)|Variety]] |date=October 22, 2019 |archive-date=October 22, 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191022151526/https://variety.com/2019/biz/news/kevin-feige-ike-perlmutter-marvel-disney-1203377802/ |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{cite news |last1=Goldberg |first1=Leslie |title=Marvel TV Topper Jeph Loeb to Exit |url=https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/marvel-tv-topper-jeph-loeb-exit-1247867 |access-date=October 22, 2019 |work=[[The Hollywood Reporter]] |date=October 22, 2019 |archive-date=October 22, 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191022180851/https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/marvel-tv-topper-jeph-loeb-exit-1247867 |url-status=live }}</ref>

===Comics career===
Loeb is known for his extensive use of narration boxes as monologues to reveal the inner thoughts of characters, though the character interactions he writes are sparse in terms of dialogue.<ref name=Salisbury/>

Loeb wrote two miniseries for the [[Ultimate Marvel|Ultimate Marvel Universe]]. His work on ''[[The Ultimates 3]]'' in 2007, with artist Joe Madureira, was panned by critics for its use of transgressive sexual and violent content for shock value "without the political relevance or epic pacing of the first two volumes." In 2008, Loeb returned to the Ultimate Universe with artist David Finch for the critically reviled five-issue miniseries ''[[Ultimatum (Ultimate Marvel comics)|Ultimatum]]''. Described in a 2015 [[Vulture.com|Vulture]] retrospective as "one of the biggest creative disasters in comics history", ''Ultimatum'''s gratuitous murder scenes permanently damaged sales across the entire Ultimate Universe and in the long run brought about its cancellation. "Over the course of just five issues, 34 different heroes and villains were murdered, often by gruesome means: Doctor Strange was squeezed until his head exploded; Magneto was decapitated; the Blob ate the Wasp and, while holding her half-devoured corpse, belched out, 'Tastes like chicken'; and so on." The review site Let's Be Friends Again described ''Ultimatum'' as "a base and insulting comic book." Critic Jason Kerouac wrote, "''Ultimatum'' #5 could quite possibly be the single worst piece of writing in recorded history."<ref>{{Citation |last=Reisman |first=Abraham |title=The Secret History of Ultimate Marvel, the Experiment That Changed Superheroes Forever |magazine=[[Vulture.com|Vulture]] |url=https://www.vulture.com/2015/05/secret-history-of-ultimate-marvel.html |publisher=New York Magazine |date=May 25, 2015 |access-date=June 5, 2021 |archive-date=June 7, 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210607005240/https://www.vulture.com/2015/05/secret-history-of-ultimate-marvel.html |url-status=live }}</ref>

Loeb's son, Sam, died on June 17, 2005, at the age of 17, after a three-year battle with [[bone cancer]]. In June 2006, Sam had a story published in ''Superman/Batman'' #26, which was nearly completed before his death. His father finished the work with the help of 25 other writers and artists, all of whom were friends of Sam, including [[Geoff Johns]], [[John Cassaday]], [[Ed McGuinness]], [[Joe Madureira]], [[Rob Liefeld]], and [[Joss Whedon]]. The issue also featured a tale titled "Sam's Story", dedicated to Sam, in which a boy named Sam serves as the inspiration for Clark Kent to later become Superman.<ref name=EncyclopediaComics>Booker, M.
