====''Beast Machines''====

In the late 1990s, Wolfman developed the [[Transformers]] TV series ''[[Beast Machines]]'', which aired on [[Fox Kids]] for two seasons from 1999 to 2000. The program was a direct continuation of the ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers|Beast Wars]]'' series, which itself was a continuation of the original [[Transformers: Generation 1|''Generation One'']] Transformers show. ''Beast Machines'' was met with mixed reviews, as the show was praised for its story, but was criticized for its focus on spirituality.

A decade later, Wolfman began writing in comics again, scripting ''[[Defex]]'', the flagship title of [[Devil's Due Productions]]' Aftermath line. He wrote an "Infinite Crisis" issue of DC's "Secret Files", and consulted with writer [[Geoff Johns]] on several issues of ''The Teen Titans''. Wolfman wrote a novel based on ''Crisis on Infinite Earths'', but rather than following the original plot, he created a new story starring the [[Flash (Barry Allen)|Barry Allen]] [[Flash (DC Comics character)|Flash]] that takes place during the original Crisis story. Wolfman wrote the novelization of the film ''[[Superman Returns]]'', and worked on a [[direct-to-video]] animated film, ''[[The Condor (film)|The Condor]]'', for [[Stan Lee]]'s Pow Entertainment.<ref name="Epstein">{{cite web |url= http://forum.newsarama.com/showthread.php?t=113902|title= Catching Up With Marv Wolfman|first= Daniel Robert|last= Epstein|date= May 24, 2007|publisher= Newsarama|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20070526101217/http://forum.newsarama.com/showthread.php?t=113902|archive-date= May 26, 2007|url-status=dead|access-date= January 29, 2011}}</ref>

In 2006, Wolfman was editorial director of Impact Comics (no relation to the DC Comics imprint), publisher of educational [[manga]]-style comics for high school students. That same year, starting with issue No. 125, Wolfman began writing DC's ''[[Nightwing]]'' series. Initially scheduled for a four-issue run, Wolfman's run was expanded to 13 issues, and finished with No. 137. During the course of his run, Wolfman introduced a new Vigilante character. Following Wolfman's departure from the pages of ''Nightwing'', the Vigilante was spun off into his own short-lived title, which Wolfman wrote. He wrote a miniseries starring the Teen Titan [[Raven (DC Comics)|Raven]], a character he and George Pérez co-created during their run on ''The New Teen Titans'', helping to revamp and update the character. He is workingworked with Pérez on a direct-to-DVD movie adaptation of the popular "Judas Contract" storyline from their tenure on ''Teen Titans''.<ref name="Epstein" />
