Marvel and Disney

PhotobucketYesterday the big news hit that Disney are to Acquire Marvel Entertainment. The Disney Corporation has just bought Marvel for 4 billion dollars and the internet nerdrage felt all around the world was registered at about 10.2 Jar-Jars.

I don’t anyone really has a clue how this will effect Marvel in the long term, and I suspect that in the short term it will not have any major effect. All the important Marvel characters (Spiderman, Hulk, X-Men and Iron Man) already have movie deals already tied up with major studios. So they’ll be no Marvel releases from Disney or Pixar at least in the short term.

The big concern is that Disney, a Conversative Christian company, would make editoral changes to Marvel comics. One Internet commentator summed this up when he joked that Wolverine’s claws are to be replaced with Bibles. This I think isn’t something we should lose to much sleep about, Disney own many different businesses, at the majority of them don’t inflict anything as wholesome (or awful) as Miley Cyrus or the Jonas Brothers on the unsuspecting public.

Humourous Marvel Disney crossover jokes are now flooding the Internet, such as the this imaginative poll.

I would have thought the Incredibles teaming with the Fantastic Four would have been a much more fun choice. Anyway here are some of better crossover images posted to the internet in the last 24 hours.
