Well I guess if you don't considering child sacrifice and dealing with an apocalypse that can wipe out reality to be dark...

That was a cool looking and well made Kingdom Hearts clip though.

"5) How many variant covers will the first issue of the new Hannah Montana comic series have?"

God help us all.

To be fair, Duck Dodgers did do a lot of cool stuff. They had Dave Mustaine in one episode and him and Megadeth saved the day by performing Back in the Day. I actually haven't seen any episodes other than that one, and I read about the Green Lantern episode, but Megadeth won me over.

In all honesty, wiping out reality doesn't seem dark at all. Don't get me wrong, it's a major threat, but that's like the plot of Aladdin. It's not real. But I think my version of dark may be more out there than some. Thanks to the internet.

UPDATE #1: In a conference call, the companies said that the deals for movies for characters at other studios (Spider-Man, X-Men, etc.) will stay in place under the terms set by Marvel and the other studios.

UPDATE #2: John Lasseter met with Marvel last week about a possible team-up between Marvel and Pixar and got "pretty excited, pretty fast." They say there's definitely an opportunity there.

UPDATE #3: The deal with Paramount Pictures to distribute five films--"Iron Man 2," "Thor," "Captain America," "The Avengers" and "Iron Man 3"--stays in place as well, but Disney would like to self-distribute down the line. "When the time comes we'll take a closer look at it."

a mickey mouse/donald duck crossover will fit right in with the other garbage marvel has been producing lately. 👆

You mean Micky Mouse or donald duck right?

Lets have wait and see approach, if Disney does what Warner Bros have been doing with Dc I think everything will be fine. I can see a kid version of spiderman, xmen, hulk etc just for kids, and the hardcore stuff for the adults. Marvel has been doing very well in the market if anything Disney has bolster Marvel ability to get better talent writers and artiest and keeping them for a long time, basically that enhanced Marvel too another level. let's give them a chance!

I wont be surprise too see Mickey Mouse as herald of Galactus, hell even Goofy damn that's scary as I really start to think about it. On animation front Marvel will blow DC out the freaking water, and that's fact. Pixar making Galactus that would off the damn chain, you gotta think of possibilities.

Quote where I said that. I just said I doubt what you said is true.

They'll probably not do ANYTHING to the comics.

Until they start ****ing with the characters, let's not assume they're gonna **** with the characters.

Also, since this is the main thread:

For that amount money I would think they can do whatever the hell they want.

Why do you insist on throwing logic out the window?

They CAN, but the chances are that they won't. It's make no financial, conceptual, critical or commercial sense to take a knowing shit on a company that's existed fine for 70 years.

I understand you hate Marvel to the point that your contribution here is nothing more then gleeful spite remarks, but try to wise up.

Doesn't matter...I'm still the better reason.

Anywhoo....back on topic. Have Joe Q made any announcements? comments? speeches on the deal?

EIC Joe Quesada doesn’t seem worried. He posted on his Twitter feed that this is a new dawn for Marvel and the comics industry.

Disney's trying to buy up Marvel, this calls for a gathering of ideas. Allow the wise and avid comicbook readers post what they think is going to happen.

I guess I just don't see the point in raising worry before we know enough to say anything for certain. But, yes, go right ahead. It's a free forum (mostly 😉 ).

Why were there no rumors floating around the internet? Something this big would have rumors flying all over the place. I think there is more to this story!

Alas, poor MARVEL! I knew THEM, Horatio: a company
of infinite CROSS OVERS, of most excellent STORIES: they hath
borne me on their back a thousand times; and now, how
abhorred in my imagination it is! my gorge rims at
it.

THIS TRULY IS THE DAY THE MUSIC DIED!!!!!
