MARLEL IS FINISHED
MARLEL IS FINISHED

Pretty much.
Why does every thread about this sink? This is a bad sign for Marvel's comic division.
Aaron Rivera
They're just switching which app you have to use. And anything you had on your old account will be made free to download on the new app. What's the problem?
Andrew Roberts
If Marvel was on it's own, it would be an awful sign. But Marvel is an IP farm for a nigh invincible parent company and thus is essentially immune to harm unless Disney shuts it down.
Creatures like the OP never tire of creating these wishful schadenfreude threads tho. (they don't have much of a life).
Aiden James
Tiny dick OP needs a support group. Won't you give him emotional support?
Asher Walker
>But Marvel is an IP farm for a nigh invincible parent company
Arn't they bleeding right now?
Henry Peterson
Marvelcucks on suicide watch
Matthew Thompson
They just gave up the pretense that it isn’t just comixology.
Jonathan Jones

David Price
A lot of corporations are bleeding right now that aren't Amazon or stay-at-home tech sites.
It's amazing how the mouth-breathers can shift from "Disney is an unstoppable Monopoly that will rule the planet with an iron fist" to "Disney is ruined and will be totally destroy this year, habeeb it!" because of a 2 month shut-down.
Brayden Peterson
Even Boeing is making a recovery, and their core business is faux-inspecting plane designs that mass-murder people (oops).
Jacob Wright
They're losing money but it would actually take years for Disney to go bankrupt.
Jayden Gutierrez
Actually we don't know if their app will still be supported. They have said that they will continue sending comics to comixology. The app and store however will remain open in archieve only.
Christian Peterson
Yeah, actually. The theme parks are bleeding very badly since they are getting unforeseen problems from the lack of anyone or anything running. Machines are decaying, rats and vermin are taking over, homeless people are sneaking in and squatting. It's really bad for the individual parts of Disney. Collectively they are still making money but that also is affected.
Mason Hernandez
why pay for a separate story when it's already linked to Comixology? Marvel Unlimited is still going so the only thing surprising is that this didn't happen earlier
Christopher Powell
>Even Boeing is making a recovery
living off eternal bail outs is a recovery?
Liam Robinson
Like it actually matters
Jacob Morales
Why would Disney need Marvel to keep making shitty comics that no one likes when they own the rights to eighty years worth of stories people do like?
Ian Cook
no because disney is cash poor and the fox buyout is basically sinking disney
Easton Scott
>But Marvel is an IP farm
At this point they don't need the comics to produce new movies/tv series/cartoons and to sell toys/plastic shit, just hire the "good" writers as screenwriters and close that shithole.
Aiden Russell
for all it's IP hording, Marvel and DC are more about comics than say Mark Millar is. All he is is IP farm, hence why Netflix just straight out bought him.
Charles Wilson
PR you dummy dumb
How bad would it be look to the masses to see "Disney closes Marvel Comics" probably hurt Marvel studios
Matthew Davis
This doesn't answer my question. Why keep paying salaries at Marvel for books that don't sell when they already own thousands of classic Marvel superhero stories which they can adapt free of charge?
Anthony Cook
>How bad would it be look to the masses
It'd look like a sound business decision, which is what it would be.
Brody Robinson
Do you think they'll roll this into Disney+ membership or some other app? I could see them pushings "comics on your tv".
Carter Reed
Is keeping Marvel open a good image? It looks like a dumpster fire. Hell, their #1 heroine can't even keep an ongoing.
Matthew Stewart
They're actually burning through those stories really fast. Thor Ragnarok cannibalized like ten different Thor and Hulk arcs.
Ian Martin
But ultimately they're just mildly cribbing off them while not really adapting them. Does it really matter if you're halfassedly referencing Planet Hulk when ultimately it's a totally different story? Does "it's kinda like a comic story you will never care to actually read" appeal to anyone?
Andrew Myers
>Thor Ragnarok cannibalized like ten different Thor and Hulk arcs.
Whoa, what? I'm not a comics reader, but it didn't just cover Planet Hulk and Ragnarok?
What else did it cover?
Brody Richardson
My ass, there's been like twenty movies and they haven't even scratched the surface.
Ryder Price
Wouldn't it be weird to go back decades for old content? Or does the public not care?
Or will they end up rebooting the movie timelines as much as the comics?
