Marvel takeover

I was somewhat shocked to hear that recently Marvel comics, the company millions of people know inside out, has been purchased. By whom you say? Well that's where things start to get interesting. You know how pretty much all of the Marvel film adaptations suck? Well how about you throw in some of the creative people from Pixar studios? Want an Incredibles but with superheroes you already know and love? There's a possibilty it may now happen.

Disney bought the comic giant for a whopping $4 billion american. Apparently this has been a bit of a save with Marvel sales going down by around 33 percent over the past year. At this current point in time companies like Fox studios still have the rights to most of the Marvel universe, putting a halt on anything creative disney have planned, so we're going to have to wait a few years before we see the likes of a Kingdom Hearts for the Marvel universe or Mickey being recruited to the X-Men.
