Marvel Names Philips International Head

Marvel Entertainment has named former 4Kids Entertainment managing director Simon Philips as president of its international division, various wire sources reported this morning.

Philips has held the 4Kids position since November 2003, giving him experience with brands like Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh! Before that, he was CEO of Licensing Dynamics International, a media agency that concentrated on the world area for comics fascination the last few years, the Middle East and Mediterranean countries.

Unless I'm forgetting someone, this should finish Marvel's reload on major corporate positions following the departure this year of several key officers.
