Originally a Petland Shark joke for Gwenpool, sharks have been adopted by other Marvel staples, such as Deadpool and Kate Bishop.
“It was wild to see Jeff Rockett in stardom and it was just him,” Thompson said. “I’m clearly biased enough to get you, but what do I don’t like about the adorable flat-house sharks that he wants to be friends with and/or eat with everything he sees. Is that?”
“We are excited that Jeff’s slow success in the comics and Jeff’s wildfire success in Marvel’s rivals can bring more complicated Jeff stories opportunities, not just Jeff’s story.” Thompson continued. “The Jeff series acts like a perfectly executed joke and I couldn’t love it more. But it’s exciting to take on the complicated story challenges you can get from the miniseries. ”
