Disney Buying Marvel For $4 Billion In Stock, Cash

What the heck?

Talk about an intellectual property powerhouse.

I wonder what this might do to Marvel's editorial. Meaning, how will Mark Millar react to having his checks signed by Disney?

Disney is going to be wringing Marvel dry to make up the $4 Billion. I really don't see this as a great deal for either side, but time will tell I guess.

I'm afraid of it, personally. I like Rich Johnston's idea of $1.99 books, though.
