More on J. Jonah Jameson
Description from Wikipedia:
John Jonah Jameson (also known as J. Jonah Jameson, J.J., Jolly Jonah Jameson, Jigsaw Jameson or J.J.J.) is a fictional supporting character featured in various Marvel Comics, most prominently the Spider-Man title. Created by writer Stan Lee and artist Steve Ditko, he first appeared in The Amazing Spider-Man #1 (March 1963).
Jameson is the publisher and editor-in-chief of the Daily Bugle, a fictional New York newspaper. Recognizable by his mustache, flattop haircut and ever-present cigar, he carries out a smear campaign against Spider-Man that has turned much of the city against the hero. Ironically, he employs Spider-Man's alter ego Peter Parker as a photojournalist.
Portrayals of Jameson have varied throughout the years. Sometimes he is shown as a foolishly stubborn and pompous skinflint who micromanages his employees and resents Spider-Man out of jealousy. Other writers have portrayed him more humanly, as a humorously obnoxious yet caring boss who nevertheless has shown great bravery and integrity in the face of the assorted villains with which the Bugle comes into contact, and whose campaign against Spider-Man comes more from fear of youngsters following his example. In either case, he has remained an important part of the Spider-Man mythos.
Jameson seems to be modeled on the American yellow journalism tycoons of the 1890s and 1900s, particularly William Randolph Hearst. Creator Stan Lee once said that Jameson was based on the impression that people have of Lee himself.
Jameson is also the father of John Jameson, the Marvel Universe supporting character who, in addition to his job as a famous astronaut, has at turns become Man-Wolf and Star-God, and married She-Hulk.
