Of Damage Control, Lee said, "That's the one that's going to be coming out this season. I haven't read it yet. I can't wait to see it. We hope it's going to be great."Lee declined to share what the second comedy will be about, but did say "in the long term, we'd love it to be" on ABC. "We definitely want to do Marvel comedies as well as dramas and of course, as you know, we supply lots of dramas to Netflix," he said.When asked if there was any concern over the fact NBC ordered a pilot for a half-hour DC Comics universe-set office comedy Powerless , Lee said, "Our job is to make great television. We pick up the best scripts we can, we put in the best casts. Our job is to make great TV."ABC already airs dramas Marvel's Agents of SHIELD and Marvel's Agent Carter. The network ordered the SHIELD spinoff Marvel's Most Wanted to pilot, and John Ridley is in development on another mystery Marvel series as well.Marvel Studios declined to comment on this story.
