What logic is that based off?
Seriously? Actually nothing, is it? There's no reason for you to believe it.
If I recall, Disney owns Miramax. They're known for tame material, right?

I an slightly concerned about this merger.
However, I feel AC's above post captures my sentiments, best.

I guess The Punisher won't use guns now
The X-Men will be even more terrible... Elektra and Bulls Eye won't kill either..

punisher will be so annoyed he'll actually jump out the comic book and gun down hannah montana and every other disney pop star like "Up is Down, Black is White"
that's the only good thing that could possibly come from this

What makes more business sense to you? Keeping the status quo that Marvel Comics was currently operating under before the merger that had the company being profitable selling its wares to adult hardcore/n00b fans? Or completely altering the artistic integrity that Marvel built for itself such that it completely alienates its readership and risks losing its profit margin it once enjoyed?

I'm not a comic fan, but why would Disney change it around? You know the old saying "If it aint broke, don't fix it?"

As far as i can see every possible change is a step in the right direction for mainstream comics.
I dont really care anyways, I only read Moon Knight

i would laugh if comic shops go under for having to compete with disney and its comic shops... late back orders for marvel comics b/c they are mostly sold in california in the amusement park or around the general area.
