Kupperberg began writing and drawing for Marvel Comics in 1974, mostly doing fill-ins and one-shots. Eventually, he had runs on team books like The Invaders, The Avengers, and The Defenders; and drew a number of issues of What If.
Also occasionally working as a writer, Kupperberg created the 1983 one-shot comic Obnoxio the Clown vs. The X-Men as a one-man band, handling everything from writing and illustrating to lettering, unusual for the comic industry at that time. In 1987, Kupperberg worked on both Spectacular Spider-Man and Amazing Spider-Man. From 1988–1991, Kupperberg drew many issues of Marvel Tales.
