When he joined the ''Animated'' production staff his first task was to revise the [[production bible]]. Later on, he would pen the original-story ''Animated'' comic series for [[IDW Publishing|IDW]]. It is his goal to make ''Animated'' "the most fun Transformers series ever". Rock on, Marty.

| He has also contributed a significant amount of work for [[Cartoon Network]] and other properties. His highest profile non-Transformers work has been as a writer for the revival of ''Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles''. Other works include such comic-to-cartoon properties as ''Batman the Animated Series'', ''[[Spider-Man]]'', ''[[Wolverine (superhero)|X-Men]]'' and ''Sam & Max: Freelance Police!'', as well episodes from ''Godzilla: The Series'', usually in partnership with Bob Skir.

| |
| *According to the convention's magazine advertisement, Bob Skir and Marty Isenberg were invited to [[BotCon 2000]], but did not end up attending.
| |
| * On the ''Transformers Animated'' season 2 DVD set, Marty provides episode commentary on "[[Mission Accomplished]]" and "[[Garbage In, Garbage Out]]" alongside [[Eric Siebenaler]], [[Derrick Wyatt]] and [[Matt Youngberg]].
| |
| * Marty has said he prefers to do self-contained episodes and then build on them in later episodes, than to do multi-ep story arcs: "I'd rather not have everything planned out for the entire season."
| |
| * Someone who looks suspiciously like him appears at the [[Burger Bot]] in "[[Human Error, Part I]]", alongside the Decepticon-allied humans [[Cancer]] and [[Hydra (Masterforce)|Hydra]] from ''[[Super-God Masterforce (franchise)|Super-God Masterforce]]''. (Marty, is there something you need to tell us?)
| |
| * The sidebar of a newspaper article in ''[[Transformers Animated: The AllSpark Almanac|The Allspark Almanac]]'' reports an interview with a "Hannah and Sarah Rose Isenberg" about their best-selling father.
