Somehow, I knew this day would come. With DC under Time Warner, it'd almost seem natural for Disney to own rival publisher Marvel. Plus, while Disney had the rights to Marvel's 80s-90s animated properties via the purchase of Saban/Fox Family earlier this decade, they seemed to have just noticed them over the past few years. Plus, Disney has been trying its hardest to reach out to young boys.
And yet, I'm still surprised. Nikki Finke is posting what she's hearing as the inside baseball that lead to the deal. http://www.deadlinehollywooddaily.com/shocker-disney-buying-marvel/ On Mon, Aug 31, 2009 at 12:16 PM, David Bruggeman <[email protected]> wrote: > With Six Flags in Chapter 11, perhaps Universal could salvage something. > > David > > ------------------------------ > *From:* Jason Carpio <[email protected]> > ** > > And six flags has the DC properties.. so i guess universal studios is f-ed > > On Mon, Aug 31, 2009 at 10:20 AM, Greg Schienke <[email protected]>wrote: > >> Well, this came out of left field.
