I just read about this...it's pretty interesting - especially the implications of Universal and their whole Marvel-land at Islands of Adventure. Surely Disney will just continue to collect the licensing fees, but who knows?

Read about it here:

I like the part about the anti-trust - it's like, "no, no, One company can't own all the superheros!"

Yeah I just read about it this morning. An interesting buy for sure. I wonder if they will have any precense in the parks besides Merchandise.

Since I'm not a big fan of Marvel, I guess I'm just not on board yet. I'm curious to see what they do with this acquisition.
