Walt Disney and Stan Lee
Uncle Walt and Stan the Man
does this mean that Wolverine/Mickey Mouse crossovers are next?
til next time true believers
Dollface:
Okay thats it, i will buy plane ride to disneys, stop taking my meds and start killing people.
Border Reiver:
OK, calm down. The only reason to do that would be the Wolverine/Mickey Mouse crossover - a Wolverine/Donald Duck cross over would be awesome, but only to see who has the worst temper....
I will withhold jusdgement until we see what disney tries to do - lets face it, marvel superheroes have been slapped on lunchboxes since the 50s at least, so the merchandising aspect isn't going to change, and as long as the comic books make money they won't change. Capitalism works that way. the movies will have greater resources to draw on, so that may be a good thing, so long as they don't gear them for the disney channel - any Hanna Montana/[insert any Marvel character here] crossovers and you and I will need to co-ordinate our schedules for maximum effect.
Blue Kitty:
I was starting to wonder why they were showing such shows as Spectacular Spider-man and X-men Evolution on Disney XD
Oh no
--- Quote ---According to Disney senior video president and chief financial officer Tom Staggs, "As the current agreements in place sunset we will look to exploit the library of characters more broadly."
"This is a big library of properties and we think there is real opportunity. We plan to evaluate where those opportunities are greatest and how we can leverage those across both Marvel and Disney."

It doesn't really seem like marvel needs this.
