Oh, no. Really? That’s mind-boggling, sort of like seeing Fisher-Price take on a line of hunting knives or Harley-Davidson being acquired by a tricycle company.
Spider Montana – Peter Cyrus is bitten by a radiactive pop-star.
DUCKTAILS!!! Hello…they’re already crimefighters. WOoo oooo.
<—this is my face when I heard about it
Oy, I’m so sad about this. All I can think of is what happened to the Muppets when they were sold to Disney. Nothing – nothing is what happened to them. They practically disapeared.
What’s ironic is how Marvel writers always brag how they have so much freedom in writing their characters as Marvel is (was) not owned by a giant corporation.
So much for that.
Don’t piss Tinkerbell off, she’ll turn into Hulkerbell.
Oh yeah, I have to expand on your idea.
Doctor Doom decides to get rid of the Fantastic Four once and for all. He pulls of a daring casino heist, and gives the money to former Backstreet Boys/NSync manager Lou Pearlman, who uses it to buy out the remainder of his prison sentence and gain release. In exchange, Pearlman cozies up to the Invisible Woman and convinces her that he’s making a comeback and can make her a pop star. Pearlman rebrands her as a Disney pop princess and gets her a TV show, a 4 record deal and a movie option, and she leaves the F4 for fame and fortune (of course she’ll get her own comic, the Invisible Pop Princess).
Meanwhile, Mr. Fantastic and The Human Torch become jealous of her success and decide to form their own boy band. Of course, the Thing is kicked out of the group, but hired on as their bodyguard, and they recruit Nightcrawler and Colossus to round out their new boy band, also called The Fantastic Four. They are also given their own TV series, record deal and movie options, and eventually go on tour together.
Wolverine hooks up with Belle, and then him and the Beast get in a fucking epic brawl.
This is probably the worst news ive heard in a while. - -
Marvel-inspired rollercoasters in Disney World would be nice.
I thought they already have those in universal studios =/
They’re not bad
Get ready for some super hero musicals…
No good or acceptable crossovers could come out of this transaction. Marvel better be allowed to stay relatively independent of Disney!
Highschool Musical meets the School of mutants
All the Marvel characters will have to wear helmets and use safe-T weapons so no one really gets hurt.
An X-Men ride, that would be enough for me.
Nothing good can come of this for the Marvel characters. I guess Stan Lee just got too old.
This is the end of Marvel Comics as we know it.
‘Nuff said
I just hope Nickelodeon doesn’t decide to buy DC to remain competitive and we end up seeing a very special iCarly starring the Sandman.
hmmm well ive seen many a beauty and the beast based nightcrawler fanfictions.
@The_Compassionate_Heretic Yeah I mean this is the shit that happens when my uncle stops being the Marvel editor-in-chief… :P (although, that was years ago. He has a wiki article and everything though, but it kinda rapes him haha. He is pissed about it.)
Most Obvious? The Incredibles and The Fantastic Four.
Most Icky? Aerial and Namor.
Most Surreal? Donald Duck and Howard the Duck.
Most Confusing? The Beast and The Beast.
This kind of list could go on and on and on and….
@jonsblond You got that right!
It would be kinda weird seeing girly princess dolls with huge muscles and weapons.
<—is devastated by this news.
@le_inferno At least he doesn’t have to work for Disney. They’re a harsh taskmaster.
Imagine Tinkerbell vs. the Green Goblin.
Thor standing atop the Matterhorn.
Briar Rabbit vs. Doctor Doom.
i got nothin
My wife, who knows nothing of comics (other than I read them weekly) heard this news and said, “That’ll be terrible. They’re gonna Disneyfy them”.
Bugs Bunny vs The White Rabbit (Alice in Wonderland)
