DC, Marvel, and Disney

We could also have the Captains Marvel movie.

Ooo, yes! Carol's a bit stuffy, having Shazam! Marvel there would lighten things up. Though since Shazam! ends with

all of Billy's foster siblings getting super powers too

I'd keep some of Carol's supporting cast around, so she isn't outnumbered.

Out of curiosity how is marvel's comic arm actually doing? I know their movies are doing gangbusters but I don't pay much attention to the comics.

Financially, the short answer is "doesn't matter." Speaking purely from a revenue standpoint, the primary role of the comics is test lab for stories, characters, and above all writers that can succeed in far, far more profitable media. Actively publishing various comics also allows them to maintain the rights to various characters, as well as link their new ones that resonate with audiences to this or that existing property.

This is not to say that the comics and those who prefer them to other media don't matter - just that they can serve as loss leaders for the overall brand without any true risk of outright cancellation. If the comics do poorly enough/lose enough money, at worst Disney may shake up their leadership or put certain titles on ice for a while, but Marvel Comics themselves will never stop publishing.

At least DC is bringing back Milestone. Be nice to read Icon again.

I don't really understand the ongoing "fight" between these three.. they are all a bit different and there is something for everybody...

Can this be considered a necro?

No. Only 44 days.

It's funny how much comics are there.
