Salicrup began his comics career at Marvel Comics when he was 15, having written to Roy Thomas offering to be "a Marvel slave"; Thomas and Sol Brodsky hired him to be a messenger transporting original art to the offices of the Comics Code Authority for approval.[2] He subsequently worked his way up to editor.[3] A Marvel employee for twenty years, he edited The Avengers,[4]The Uncanny X-Men,[5] and The Fantastic Four.[6] In 1987, Salicrup became the editor of The Amazing Spider-Man[7] and oversaw the "Kraven's Last Hunt" storyline. He is credited with coming up with the idea of running "Kraven's Last Hunt" as a crossover through all the Spider-Man titles.[8] He followed this by hiring Todd McFarlane to draw the title. The popularity of McFarlane's work led to the launch of another Spider-Man title, Spider-Man, which Salicrup edited as well.[9] Salicrup was the editor of Marvel Age magazine for eight years. He wrote licensed Marvel comic adaptations of Transformers, Sledge Hammer!, and The A-Team. He also wrote the novelty comic book printed on a toilet paper roll for The Amazing Spider-Man and the Incredible Hulk[10][11]
