I suspect not much. At least not more than any editor in the business. Editors at Marvel and DC have contributed to storylines for decades without needing to feed their ego with a story credit but Jemas has to have his name on everything. I'm surprised he has not done away with the "Stan Lee presents" yet and changed it to "Bill Jemas presents". Has any other Marvel president done this before? I don't think so. It's as if he wants to be editor in chief and Stan Lee rolled in one. It kind of takes the luster off Joe Quesada's position.

I respect his ability to round up some of the better writers and artists but if this guy really thinks he came up with the idea for Spider-Man then he is insane.

At a con I was at last year, Bendis says they give Jemas a credit in Ultimate Spider-Man because it was his idea to do the re-vamp and the magazine. Big fucking deal. John Byrne and the guys Marvel fired had the same idea a few years ago. All Ultimate Spider-Man is is a re-telling of the Stan Lee Spider-Man with a few pony-tails and the internet thrown in. If they give Jemas a credit for the re-vamp idea then they ought to at least credit Stan Lee and Steve Ditko for creating the story.
