                      AMENDMENT NO.1 TO SCHEDULE 13G


     This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13G (this "Amendment") is being filed
on behalf of Value Partners, Ltd., a Texas limited partnership ("Value
Partners"), Ewing & Partners, a Texas general partnership ("Ewing &
Partners"), and Timothy G. Ewing, the managing general partner of Ewing &
Partners, as an amendment to the initial statement on Schedule 13G relating
to shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock"),
of Marvel Enterprises, Inc. (the "Company") as filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission on October 1, 1998 (the "Initial Statement").  This
Amendment is being filed to reflect the change in beneficial ownership of
Common Stock due to an increase in the number of shares of Common Stock
directly owned and held by Value Partners.

ITEM 4    OWNERSHIP:

          Item 4 of the Initial Statement is hereby amended and restated in
          its entirety to read as follows:
          
          See Items 5 through 11 on page 2 for Value Partners, page 3 for
          Ewing & Patners and page 4 for Mr. Ewing.
          
          Value Partners has the sole power to vote and dispose of the
          3,370,992 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by it. Value
          Partners does not share the power to vote or to direct the vote
          of, or the power to dispose or to direct the disposition of, the
          Common Stock owned by it. However, Ewing & Partners, as general
          partner of Value Partners, may be deemed, for purposes of
          determining beneficial ownership pursuant to Rule 13d-3, to have
          the shared power with Value Partners to vote or direct the vote
          of, and the shared power with Value Partners to dispose or direct
          the disposition of, the 3,370,992 shares of Common Stock owned by
          Value Partners. Mr. Ewing, as managing general partner of Ewing &
          Partners, may be deemed, for purposes of determining beneficial
          ownership pursuant to Rule 13d-3, to have the shared power with
          Value Partners to vote or direct the vote of, and the shared
          power with Value Partners to dispose or direct the disposition
          of, the 3,370,992 shares of Common Stock owned by Value Partners.


                                 SIGNATURE

          After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and
belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true,
complete and correct.
